Creative cities and the international agenda of tourist-cultural policies for urban renewal

Abstract In recent decades, categories such as “creative cities” and “creative districts” have gained ground in the agenda of universities, governments, and international organizations, proposing a new way of thinking about urban policies that combines urban planning, development, arts, culture, and tourism. This article historically analyzes the processes of emergence and dissemination of this political-discursive rationality that is the basis of a new international agenda for cities. It focuses mainly on the reconstitution of the socio-discursive network involved in the recognition of the creative sectors as an urban development strategy and a fundamental part of urban renewal projects adopted worldwide.

摘要：近数十年来，「创意城市（creative cities）」与「创意街区（creative districts）」等概念在高校、各国政府及国际组织的议事议程中日益受到重视，提出了融合城市规划、开发、艺术、文化与旅游的城市政策新思路。本文从历史维度剖析了这一构成城市领域全新国际议事议程核心依据的政治话语理性的兴起与传播进程，重点聚焦于对相关社会话语网络的重构：该网络涵盖了将创意产业认定为城市发展战略，以及全球范围内推行的城市更新项目核心组成部分的认知过程。
