ART AND THE CHALLENGE OF MARKETS VOLUME 1 GEBUNDEN

Art and the Challenge of Markets Volumes 1 & 2 examine the politics of art and culture in light
of the profound changes that have taken place in the world order since the 1980s and 1990s. The
contributors explore how in these two decades  the neoliberal or market-based model of
capitalism started to spread from the economic realm to other areas of society. As a result 
many aspects of contemporary Western societies increasingly function in the same way as the
private enterprise sector under traditional market capitalism.The first volume of this
two-volume collection considers a broad range of national cultural policies from European and
North American countries  and examines the strengthening of international and transnational art
worlds in music  visual arts  film  and television. The chapters cover cultural policy and
political culture in the United States  United Kingdom  Germany  France  Switzerland  the
Nordic countries  the Balkans  and Slovenia  and address theextent to which Western nations
have shifted from welfare-state to market-based ideologies. Tensions between centres and
peripheries in global art worlds are considered  as well as complex interactions between
nations and international and transnational art worlds  and regional variations in the
audiovisual market. Both volumes provide students and scholars across a range of disciplines
with an incisive  comparative overview of the politics of art and culture and national 
international and transnational art worlds in contemporary capitalism.
