Taylor, CF (2006) Beyond advocacy: developing an evidence base for regional creative industry strategies. Cultural Trends, 15 (1). 3 - 18. ISSN 0954-8963
Abstract
This paper examines several aspects of the developing evidence base for regional creative industry policy making in England and argues that the focus of the current research base is disproportionately determined by the demand for evidence for advocacy purposes. It offers an evaluation that challenges the basis on which some of the central sector advocacy claims have been made and argues that unless the evidence base is allowed to develop beyond advocacy, then the claims for evidence-based policy will be seriously compromised.
