Abstract
About the economic logic and structure of modern cultural industries and the connection between cultural production and urban-industrial concentration. Why are global cities the homelands of the modern cultural industries. The discussion covers many sectors of the cultural economy, from craft industries such as clothing and furniture to modern media industries such as cinema and music recording.
