Філософські виміри культурної політики

Against the background of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, the question of an effective cultural policy that would support national identity, contribute to the purification of consciousness from propaganda myths and preserve the heritage of Ukrainian culture is becoming more acute. Since cultural policy is related to both aesthetic-artistic and cultural-anthropological dimensions of social life, in order to identify the effective influence of cultural policy on dominant social practices, it is necessary to find out the universal principles of its functioning. The purpose of this article is to identify the relevant philosophical and methodological basis of cultural policy for modern Ukrainian realities. Based on the fundamental ideas of Richard Rorty’s pragmatic philosophy and his analysis of cultural policies, the generally accepted nature of the inferential approach to social reality on the part of individual social groups was ascertained. The variability of cultural policy depending on the type of social organization community/society is demonstrated. In small social groups of the authoritarian type, social epistemological authority is mediated by the individual preferences of the leader of this group, so the tools of cultural policy are weak (patriarchal family, religious or political sect). An authoritarian or totalitarian mass society shows a high propensity for linguistic practices of propaganda, which can be seen as an extreme distorted form of cultural politics. In democratic societies, cultural policy is able to harmonize social life, improving its practices and building a value-symbolic world that constitutes culture in a broad sense. The social institute of education has all the tools, including digital ones, to shape the necessary social practices and educate a critical thinker who is able to generate conceptual knowledge, i.e. see relationships and be aware. Openness in decision-making, interaction of expert groups, public discussions are necessary elements for an effective cultural policy, which should be different from “cultural management”. Creative cultural industries play an important role in modern popular culture societies, and these industries significantly strengthen the economic component of social life. Public projects and initiatives effectively help to preserve Ukrainian culture, influence the level of awareness of Ukrainians and the economic well-being of our country.

The cultural policies of schistosomiasis control in China: a historical analysis.

China has a history of using cultural policies to control infectious diseases, including schistosomiasis, which was once hyperendemic in the country. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, significant achievements have been made in schistosomiasis control, with a decrease in the number of cases and infection rates. This study provides a historical analysis of cultural policies in schistosomiasis control in China. During the Mao era (1949-1976), socialist ideology shaped cultural policies that included mass mobilization campaigns, propaganda, and cultural education to promote health practices, and community participation and empowerment. During the Reform era (1978-2012), there was a shift towards market-oriented policies and individual responsibility, and cultural policies promoted behavioral change, but there were challenges in implementing them in a rapidly changing society. In the "New Era" of socialism (2012-now), cultural policies are focused on promoting comprehensive schistosomiasis control strategies, technological advancements and innovation, and international cooperation. The Chinese experience in schistosomiasis control provides valuable lessons for other countries facing similar challenges and underscores the importance of cultural policies in promoting health and well-being.

Culture-Led Smart Villages: A Critical Cultural Policy Analysis in South Africa

South Africa is rapidly obliterating its cultural resources and indigenous values. Particularly, this is the case in rural South Africa where manifestations of socio-economic declensions are evident. However, a number of the policies that are meant to enhance rural development lack a cohesive strategy that is based on culture-based theoretical frameworks. The paper argues that the conspicuous disregard to address rural development and its concomitant socio-economic challenges in the Revised White Paper on Arts, Culture, and Heritage, 2017, by the Department of Arts and Culture (DAC), now (DSAC); poses a great threat to sustainable rural development

A Free Art Calls for a Free Society: On the Freedom of Art and Autonomy as Project

In recent years, the far right “culture war” has to an increasing extent been allowed to set the terms for cultural policy debates, in Sweden and internationally. In the Swedish context, empty accusations against public cultural institutions of “wokeist” bias and “cancel culture” have found support in a public report from the governmental Agency for Cultural Policy Analysis, which claims that national public funding bodies are imposing politically correct demands on their applicants, with a “detrimental influence” on the freedom of art. This article shows that the ACPA lacks grounds for these claims. Taking its cue from the ACPA’s report, it instead focuses on the fundamental and contested concept of the freedom or the autonomy of art. It seeks to outline what would need to characterise a critical concept of the autonomy of art today, and asks what the political implications would be of a rigorous understanding of such a concept. It argues that cultural policy should be understood as a project of cultural democratization, which should in turn be understood as a project of autonomy.

“Happy, healthy and participatory citizens”: suburban cultural policy in the Finnish city of Jyväskylä

ABSTRACT This study examines how culture is positioned to the strategic goals of one Nordic city. It explores how strategic (cultural) policy measures aim to enable and implement participation and residents’ cultural activity, a perspective commonly underlined as a core objective and value in the welfare states’ cultural policy. Two suburbs selected provide an urban context to conduct the cultural policy analysis. The findings indicate a possible variation in both the strategic role of culture and the cultural policy pursued in different urban contexts. In suburbs the implementation of cultural policy relies on the civic activities and actors of the third sector. Additionally, the cross-administrative nature of cultural policy related to the different city areas should be acknowledged explicitly in cultural policy and urban planning. To achieve this, more research is needed on the residents’ and other actors’ role in the urban culture-led strategic development in different areas of cities.

ФУНКЦІОНУВАННЯ МУЗИЧНОЇ ІНДУСТРІЇ В СУЧАСНІЙ УКРАЇНІ: ВІД КОНЦЕРТУ ДО ОДИНИЦІ АВТОРСЬКОГО ПРАВА

The relevance of the research lies in the need to determine the fundamental principles of the functioning of the music industry in contemporary Ukraine, as reflected in its policies and legislation, as Ukrainian artists continue to actively create music products despite the ongoing armed conflict. Artists in Ukraine require transparent mechanisms for generating their own income, based on a coordinated system of legislation. The article explores the fundamental principles of the functioning of the music industry in contemporary Ukraine, as reflected in Ukraine's cultural policy and legislation, through an analysis of cultural policies regarding music and concert activities of artists in various periods of the Soviet Union, and by comparing it with the current reality in the Ukrainian music market. The study used a systemic and dialectical approach, as well as methods of analysis, synthesis, description, and comparison. The terminological basis of Ukrainian cultural legislation pertaining to the functioning of the music industry and market is analyzed. The absence of terms designating activities related to the production of commercial music products is identified, despite the fact that the music market continues to operate even in times of martial law. An analysis of the fundamental principles of the USSR's cultural policy regarding music in different periods is conducted, and the main state authorities responsible for controlling the concert activities of artists are identified. In the conclusions, it is emphasized that the roots of the fundamental principles of today's cultural policy in the field of music and concert activities in Ukraine still lie in the narrative of concert activities, as it was in the Soviet Union, but without ideological component. Although there are established norms of copyright legislation that allow for progress towards protecting the rights of Ukrainian artists. Further research can focus on studying the path to the popularity of a musical performer in the Soviet Union and comparing it with the situation in Ukraine: from independence to the present day.

Exploring implicit and explicit cultural policy dimensions through major-event and neoliberal rhetoric

This paper is conceptually positions the emergence of the neoliberal city in the context of transitions to late-capitalism. The aim of this study is to understand intersections between explicit and implicit cultural policy dimensions focusing on the Rijeka2020 programme as intended and how it was restructured as a response to COVID-19. Through cultural policy analysis, this ex-ante qualitative case study of the Rijeka2020 programme illuminates overlapping explicit and implicit policy priorities of the ECoC—offering a unique insight into what could potentially be the future of the European cultural policy. Rijeka2020 can be seen as a changing point amidst different rhetoric, analysed around three themes (regeneration, legacy, and participation). Results examine how Rijeka's culture-led urban regeneration agenda was shy on creative industry oriented programming, yet reinforced through capital cultural infrastructural projects. Through attempts to avoid event-led spectacle, officials planned to engage more at the neighbourhood-scale using participatory art practices that concentrated on capacity building. Important take-away points address shifts from culture-oriented regeneration to local participatory art practices is a step towards reconstructing the cultural sector upstream (based on production) and downstream (through reception). • Rijeka2020 rhetoric offers unique insight into what could potentially be future European major-event cultural policy. • Rijeka2020 culture-led urban regeneration was shy on the creative industry, yet reinforced through cultural infrastructural. • Neighbourhood-scale participatory art was impactful, upskilling the workforce and developing audiences. • Through COVID-19, Rijeka focused on the reconstruction of cultural sector activities and active citizen participation.

‘CULTURAL SHOCK’: MUSEUMS’ ACTIVITY DURING THE PANDEMIC

The questions related to museums’ operations worldwide in 2020, namely during the so-called enforced quarantine resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, are tackled. The actions of museums and other cultural institutions in reaction to the unexpected world pandemic and henceforth derived sanitary restrictions aborting the regular operations of museum as well as the fulfilment of their statutory mission are discussed.

SOCIAL ENGINEERING THROUGH EDUCATION LAW A comparative analysis of cultural policies between the Dutch and Indonesian central Government

Studies on art education and culture are a continuing concern within academicians and politicians. Although extensive research has been carried out on the fields, few studies exist, which concern about the use of art education for cultural hegemony. This study concerns about Acehnese culture and identity. During the time of colonisation, imperialist scholar; Snouck Hurgronje had used cultural resources as the instrument to instil false cultural identity for the interest to take control over Aceh. Stepping on the Dutch’s colonialising policies, the central government of Indonesia has, as argued, used art curriculum as a hegemonic media for similar interests. This article discusses the case of art education in Acehnese by analysing the content of the text books recommended by the central government. This work is to demonstrate the representation of Acehnese cultural identity in the “Art and Culture” curriculum of schools in Aceh. I employ Freire, Hall, Apple, and Giroux thoughts to formulate the framework of this article. The aim of this paper is to understand the mechanism of the art curriculum used to nationalise local people and to uncover the scheme of cultural hegemony in Acehnese schools, Indonesia. This work significantly contributes toward understanding the relation between cultural hegemony and education

At turde skabe momentum - kompetencebehov i et hybridt og internationalt bibliotekslandskab

Over the last 60 years, changes in librarianship have led to an increasing hybridization, and inspired a discussion on what a competence profile might look like for future library staff. Whether the structural changes were triggered by innovative processes, internationalization or by strengthening social and cultural capital, it resulted in altered self-image and fragmented forms of practice. We argue that shifting cultural policy regimes have intensified processes of hybridization and forced libraries to act as Gyro Gearlooses in a tirelessly search for new fields of activity, strategic alliances and more efficient working methods.Theoretically and methodically informed by neo-institutional theory and especially by historical institutionalism, we focus on the Janus-faced nature of change processes distinguishing 'preservation competences' from 'change competences' thus conceiving hybridization as a change with limitations or as constrained selection. After the analysis of cultural policy since the 1960s till the 1980s, we investigate hybridization based on a case study. Central to this are various models of international cooperation that reflect different experiences, competencies, and needs. The analysis shows that changes in the institutional framework are not necessarily the result of a deliberate strategy, but the random result of internal and external adaptations of libraries to their changing environments. In conclusion, we find that technical knowledge and the ability to maneuver in a project organization are not sufficient. This makes it even more important to develop an understanding of the permanently shifting power coalitions in organizational fields as a vehicle of institutional change processes.

Can Audience Development Promote Social Diversity in German Public Arts Institutions?

Despite generous public funding, arts institutions in Germany are primarily serving a small, educated section of the German population. This article presents findings from arts participation surveys, research from an empirical study on “Intercultural Audience Development” in public theaters and museums, and an analysis of cultural policy debates to reveal the role of audience development in overcoming the social imbalance of audiences in German cultural institutions. Research findings suggest that traditional concepts of audience development do not lead to sustainable changes in the social structure of the audience. More substantial institutional changes are necessary, supported by new cultural policies.

...Y después de las respuestas surgieron nuevas preguntas: Investigaciones y conjeturas en torno a pensar la edición

Los autores, miembros fundadores del dispositivo de producción e intermediación cultural BNV Producciones, trazan un detenido análisis de su actividad editorial, establecida tras las intensas discusiones iniciales en torno a los nuevos medios y mecanismos de creación y comunicación de los nuevos saberes que estaban haciendo su aparición en los últimos años de la década de los 80. Introducen una serie de cuestiones que asientan sus principios fundacionales y posicionamientos en torno a la activación del pensamiento crítico y nuevos modos de hacer en el tejido creativo, y a partir del análisis y el cuestionamiento de las políticas culturales que estaban sobreviniendo en los primeros 90 tras la erupción efusiva de las corrientes económicas neoliberales. Genealógicamente, analizan su producción atendiendo al contexto socio político en el que se generó cada proyecto, relacionándola con las colaboraciones individuales y/o institucionales que han tenido lugar desde su fundación en el año 1988 hasta la actualidad.

On the legitimacy of cultural policies: analysing Québec’s cultural policy with the Economies of Worth

This paper explores the question of the legitimation of cultural policies by examining the case of the Canadian French-speaking province, Québec, where the consensus over the legitimacy and the purpose of a cultural policy was not easily reached. To understand the evolution of the justifications for state intervention in this field, we have analysed three major policy statements issued by the government of Québec as well as the criticisms levelled at the moment of their publication using the analytic framework the Economies of Worth. Developed by French sociologist Luc Boltanski and economist Laurent Thévenot, this framework conceptualises different regimes of justification that can be retraced in cultural policy statements. We explore more particularly the concept of ‘compromise’ which enables us to understand why cultural policies have difficulty achieving consensus. This paper thus aims at assessing the heuristic value of this interpretative device for cultural policy analysis.

Modelos de política cultural y modelos de equipa-mientos culturales: de los modelos nacionales a los modelos locales. Análisis del caso de Barcelona

The development of cultural policy analysis by social science has been produced a theorization about cultural policy models from sociology and political science. This analysis shows the influence of the national model of cultural policy on the forms of governance and management of cultural facilities. However, in this paper we will defend that currently the local model of cultural policy decisively influences the model of cultural institutions. This is explained by the growing importance of culture in local development strategies. In order to demonstrate this we will analyze the case of the Barcelona Model of local development and cultural policy, that is characterized for the level of local government leadership, multilevel governance, the use of culture in urban planning processes and a tendency to use public-private partnership in public management. This Model influences the genesis and development of the cultural facilities and it produces a singular and relatively successful model.

A centralised market orientation: the implicit determinants of Finnish cultural policy in 1990–2010

This article examines the reactions of Finnish cultural policy to the neoliberal turn in its societal environment. The analysis of cultural policy documents in 1990–2010 concentrates on three particular elements of societal change: the reforms in public management, the reorientations in international relations and the paradigm of immaterial production. It is argued here that besides the mythical democratic pluralism of the Nordic welfare states, cultural policy treats newcomers to the political arena selectively. Consequently, the system, constructed originally for protecting free artistic expression and equal distribution of cultural possibilities, has been in the front line of political market orientation in Finland. The orientation is modelled rhetorically after the ideas of cultural pluralism and economic efficiency; in practice, the fight has been a technocratic one between different notions of governmental responsibilities. This mechanism stresses formal procedures at the expense of ad hoc negotiations, leading to a centralised market orientation.

Narrativas de democratização cultural no Brasil: um olhar sociológico ao Programa Cultura Viva

This article discusses the meanings of cultural democratization explicit in the recent history of the analysis of cultural policies and seeks to ascertain how this conceptual diversification has been expressed in the policies implemented in Brazil. For this purpose, it analyzes the narrative recurrence of these processes in the “Cultura Viva” program of the Ministry of Culture. It concludes that cultural democratization relates to a heterogeneous and multifaceted set of political actions and cultural practices that converge on social objectives whose scale of intervention associates the reallocation of public resources through selection processes of extensive competition, a geographical internalization of the state’s intervention, a pluralization of identity issues and the struggle against social inequalities.Key words: cultural policies, democratization, social objectives.
