Europe in the creative age
Popis:
Creativity has become a driving force of economic growth. The ability to compete
and prosper in the global economy goes beyond trade in goods and services
and flows of capital and investment. Instead, it increasingly turns on
the ability of nations to attract, retain and develop creative people. This report
extends the concepts and indicators introduced in The Rise of the Creative Class to
the European context. It develops new indicators for the Creative Class and competitiveness
that are based on the 3Ts of economic development—Technology, Talent and Tolerance
— for 14 European, Scandinavian and Nordic countries and compares them to the
United States. While these measures differ in significant respects from the indicators in
The Rise of the Creative Class, the findings are just as illuminating and compelling.
