Artists, scholars and policy makers from across the political spectrum recognize the need to move beyond debates over funding for the arts and the humanities toward new issues facing a global cultural sector.

What will be the impact of changes in government support, philanthropy, and the cultural industries? How can cultural institutions reach new audiences? How does culture activate our nation’s communities? How will policy be affected by global transformations? How will we think about art, culture, and policy in the next century?

The Politics of Culture brings together the most important recent thinking on these and related questions and provides a compelling map for the future of American cultural policies.
