Protection Mechanisms and Revitalization Strategies for Industrial Heritage

Industrial heritage is a product of the Industrial Revolution and an important asset for a country or region. The protection and revitalization of industrial heritage have become pressing tasks in the present era. In the new era, it is essential, on the one hand, to establish a comprehensive and scientific policy system for industrial heritage protection by creating specialized protection agencies and ensuring strong governmental support. On the other hand, revitalization strategies should be developed based on practical needs, such as transforming industrial heritage into cultural and art centers, converting it into creative industry parks, and integrating industrial heritage resources into tourism and leisure industries. These strategies aim to ensure the comprehensive protection and sustainable use of industrial heritage.

Pro- and Contra-Coalition: Governing the Rise and Fall of Creative Industrial Parks in China

A great number of creative industrial parks (CIPs) have emerged in the past two decades in China as a critical and popular approach to the adaptive reuse of abandoned industrial land in cities. However, a few vibrant CIPs have been closed in the past few years, and the sites are set to be demolished and redeveloped in a property-led manner, suggesting the fragility of CIPs as a land reuse approach. This article aims to elaborate on the institutional rationale behind such a phenomenon. Cases in Shanghai and Guangzhou are examined and presented. The key arguments include: (a) in the industrial land redevelopment process, public and private actors flexibly establish pro-coalitions and contra-coalitions to foster and close CIPs, with strategies to overcome institutional obstacles and to implement land redevelopment-pursued regulatory plans, respectively; (b) key actors forming the two coalitions overlap, such as the local government and the state-owned enterprise land occupiers, and their positions shift subject to specific circumstances; and (c) the finding of the two coalitions echoes the existing argument that there are forces beyond the growth machine driving China’s urban development and provides further insight into the explicit framework of the dual forces underneath.

Resistance to Being Listed Industrial Heritage? The Conflicts and Dilemma of Heritage-Making During Land Banking in Guangzhou

Amid rapid urban regeneration over the past decade, industrial heritage conservation in China has garnered increasing attention, focusing more on the reuse of listed buildings than on conflicts in the inscription process. This article examines the conflicts and dilemmas between urban redevelopment and industrial heritage conservation during the inscription process in China, through five case studies in Guangzhou. It aims to provide both an understanding of conflicts and institutional challenges posed by land banking, and insights into stakeholder dynamics, the role of media and NGOs, and the implementation of cultural heritage assessments. Grounded in the Institutional Analysis and Development framework, the empirical studies reveal that institutional conflicts, particularly resistance from land development centers and former factory owners, often stem from financial motivations. This resistance can lead to the premature demolition of potential heritage sites but also drive institutional innovations. Guangzhou’s introduction of the Wenping assessment system integrates industrial heritage identification with land banking and urban regeneration planning, aiming to protect heritage from hasty demolitions. Media coverage and NGO advocacy have been instrumental in heritage-making and prompting policy responses. The adaptive reuse of industrial heritage sites into creative industrial parks faces challenges from their temporary nature and land banking pressures, underscoring the need for policies ensuring stable and enduring reuse. Ambiguous responsibilities and fragmented management systems further impede effective heritage conservation.

Fostering employees' innovative behavior: The importance of proactive personality and work-related flow

Employees' innovative behaviors (EIB) play a crucial role in driving enterprises' innovation and enabling them to adapt to the complex business environment. The purpose of this study is to examine the role of proactive personality in EIB, whereby a mediating effect of work-related flow is proposed in this relationship. The moderating effect of organizational innovation climate is also examined on the indirect of proactive personality on EIB through work-related flow. With purposive sampling, a questionnaire survey was conducted on front-line employees of two digital cultural and creative industrial parks in Southwest China. A total of 279 valid questionnaires were used for hypothesis verification. The findings indicate that employees' proactive personality has a significant positive effect on EIB. Employees with a proactive personality are more likely to experience work-related flow, which in turn promotes their EIB. However, we did not find evidence of the organizational innovation climate moderating the relationship between proactive personality and EIB.

Research on Optimization Strategy of Creative Industrial Park Based on Pareto Improvement of Industrial Heritage Reuse

The protection and reuse of industrial heritage is an important link in the process of urban renewal. At present, there are a large number of industrial heritage creative industrial parks in China, but their construction styles and development levels are uneven. Based on Pareto's improvement theory, this paper puts forward optimization and promotion strategies for resource allocation and land use in the park to achieve the goal of mutual benefit and symbiosis.

External Spatial Morphology of Creative Industries Parks in the Industrial Heritage Category Based on Spatial Syntax: Taking Tianjin as an Example

Industrial heritage creative industrial parks are an organic component of historical neighborhood buildings. According to several field visits and surveys of creative industrial parks, it has been found that the external space of some creative industrial parks does not meet the needs of the people. This research primarily investigates the critical factors influencing the usability of external spaces in these revitalization projects. Spatial syntax, a field that has seen considerable advancement in recent years, offers a more scientific approach to understanding spatial relationships. Therefore, this paper employs spatial syntax as its principal methodology. It conducts a quantitative analysis of the external spatial morphology of four creative industrial parks of industrial heritage in Tianjin. The study critically evaluates the syntactic values and identifies issues in the external spatial morphology, including a dearth of cultural elements and limited environmental richness. Furthermore, it provides recommendations for the enhancement of these external spaces. The aim is to furnish data support and strategic insights to invigorate the revitalization efforts of Tianjin’s industrial heritage creative industrial parks.

A study on entrepreneurial factors of craft artists

The Taiwanese government has initiated the establishment of cultural and creative industry parks with the aim of fostering the local cultural economy through the strategy of cultural activities clustering. The Cultural Heritage Park is one such publicly operated park. Since 2016, the park has actively encouraged craft workers to establish their businesses within its premises and provided entrepreneurial development resources. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that contribute to the entrepreneurship of craftsmen and evaluate the effectiveness of the government-provided resources. To achieve this, the study employed in-depth interviews and questionnaires administered to administrators of cultural heritage parks and prospective entrepreneurial craftsmen, to explore the public sector's strategies in cultivating entrepreneurship and how entrepreneurial factors are interrelated. The study findings indicate a positive correlation between entrepreneurial prior experience, push and pull factors, motivation, resource utilization, entrepreneurial resources, and entrepreneurial performance. These results offer valuable insights for the public sector to promote entrepreneurship development among craftsmen and effectively manage cultural parks.

Multicriteria Model for Determining the Best and Low-Cost Methods of Industrial Heritage Transformation and Utilization under Fuzzy Inputs

The renovation and utilization of industrial heritage are important issues in the field of sustainable urban renewal. The renovation of industrial heritage is influenced by various factors such as the value of a heritage site, its location, the positioning of renovation, and the cost of renovation. Most existing studies focus on the concept of renovation and the establishment of heritage management techniques. However, a low cost in the context of urban sustainability has a greater impact on renovation. Therefore, this paper takes Beijing Xinhua 1949 Cultural and Creative Industrial Park as an example, incorporates the cost–benefit ratio into the plans for a low-cost construction, and proposes a method to evaluate the performance of holistic low-cost construction during the whole life cycle of industrial heritage renovation and utilization. This study uses the AHP method to create an evaluation index system and fuzzy TOPSIS(FTOPSIS) to rank the solutions so as to establish a comprehensive evaluation system to thus evaluate industrial heritage renovation projects that are difficult to fully quantify, with the aim to obtain performance evaluation conclusions. The results of this study suggest that the definition of a low-cost renovation should not be limited to a reduction in investment costs but should also pay equal attention to the cost–benefit ratio before and after renovation, and that functional and spatial sustainability is another feasible strategy for achieving the sustainable renovation of industrial heritage.

Popularity influence mechanism of creative industry parks: A semantic analysis based on social media data

Why some places are popular but others are not? Many studies have captured the drivers of a place's popularity, but few have explained how they work. The contribution of this study is that it proposes a methodology composed of “calculation” and “explanation” so as to explore the key factors and mechanisms that influence cultural venues to become popular places. 41 cultural and creative industry parks in Beijing were chosen and points-of-interest (POIs) and Dazhong Dianping (DZDP) social media data was used in this study. Park popularity was judged by the DZDP star rating and the average number of comments per year (ANCPY). The “calculation” of the main influence factors was based on fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), and the “explanation” of their rules was based on Word2vec. It is found that “coordination between old and new”, “density of cultural, scientific and educational facilities”, “building height diversity”, “parking lot density”, “number of bus stops” and the “number of universities and scientific research institutions” influence park popularity by affecting the aesthetics of framing scenes, the cultural functions, parking system, and accessibility. The conclusions can be referred to by park planners and operators to improve cultural ecosystem service and passenger flow volume.

Based on the evaluation results, the existing problems in the renovation and reuse of industrial heritage in Qingdao were analyzed, and subsequently corresponding optimization strategies were proposed.

중국 선양 1905 창의 산업단지의 개조 후 적응성 평가 연구

The emergence of multimodal old industrial buildings rejuvenation projects is caused by the rapid expansion of cities, continuous deepening of industrial structure and the increase in awareness of environmental protection and energy saving. Creative industrial park is one of the main models of old industrial building rejuvenation projects, although the remaining values of old industrial buildings is fully utilized, economic, social and environmental problems have been associated with these projects, leading to unsatisfactory results after rejuvenation, at the same time, feedback and analysis after renovation of old industrial buildings is lacking. Therefore, it is urgent to evaluate the adaptability of old industrial buildings after rejuvenation. Through evaluating the performance and indexes of old industrial buildings after rejuvenation, this paper aims to investigate the applicability and accuracy of the rejuvenation strategy of old industrial buildings and propose corresponding improvement measures to realize the dynamic renewal of old industrial buildings. The number of rejuvenation projects of old industrial plants within China and abroad has increased dramatically and there are several known modes of rejuvenation, but there are little evaluations on the effects of these rejuvenation projects after they are put into use. This paper proposes that rejuvenation of old industrial district is a long-term dynamic process and using the rejuvenation project of Shenyang 1905 Creative Industrial Park as an example, the adaptability evaluation index is established based on research and data analysis of the user’s evaluation of the adaptability of the renovation project. This paper analysed the above rejuvenation project based on following five perspectives: 1) external environment, 2) architectural regeneration effect, 3) cultural heritage, 4) social influence and 5) economic benefits. Hypothesis and questionnaire were put forth based on reviewed literatures of the project. Participants (N=200) entered the designed online questionnaire and data analysis was conducted using SPSS 25.0. The results of the study are consistent with the actual situation and shed light to the priority of the secondary transformation of the project for the continuous improvement of the project, so that the resources can be reasonably allocated. The post-use adaptability feedback of the rejuvenation project provides a new model of project management for the dynamic transformation of such projects.

The Effect of Animation-Guided Mindfulness Meditation on the Promotion of Creativity, Flow and Affect.

Creativity is so important for social and technological development that people are eager to find an easy way to enhance it. Previous studies have shown that mindfulness has significant effects on positive affect (PA), working memory capacity, cognitive flexibility and many other aspects, which are the key to promoting creativity. However, there are few studies on the relationship between mindfulness and creativity. The mechanism between mindfulness and creativity is still uncertain. Meditation is an important method of mindfulness training, but for most people who do not have the basic training, it’s difficult to master how to get into a state of mindfulness. Animation has been shown by many studies to help improve cognition and is often used as a guiding tool. Using animation as the guiding carrier of meditation is more convenient and easier to accept. Therefore, this study adopted the intervention method of animation-guided meditation, aiming to explore: (1) the effect of animation-guided meditation on enhancing creativity; (2) the role of flow and emotion in the influence of mindfulness on creativity. We advertised recruitment through the internal network of a creative industrial park, and the final 95 eligible participants were divided into two groups: animation (n = 48) and audio (n = 47) guided meditation. The animation group was given an animated meditation intervention, and the audio group was given an audio meditation intervention, both interventions were performed 3 times a week and last for 8 weeks. Results: (1) Animation-guided meditation significantly increased participants’ mindfulness and creativity levels; Significantly reduced their cognitive load compared to audio-guided meditation. (2) Mindfulness has a significant direct effect on creativity, and significant indirect effects on creativity; Flow and PA act as the mediating variable. Conclusion: (1) Mindfulness, flow, and PA all helped to improve the subjects’ work creativity. In addition to the direct positive impact of mindfulness on creativity, mindfulness can also have an indirect positive impact on creativity through flow and PA. (2) Compared with audio, animation can significantly reduce cognitive load and help improve users’ cognitive ability, which is more suitable for the guidance materials of mindfulness meditation to enhance the effect of meditation.

As a new business form of Cultural and Creative Industrial Cluster, the management of Cultural and Creative Industrial Park is faced with many difficulties, such as imperfect credit mechanism, lagging efficiency of intellectual property management, difficulties in industrial chain integration and upgrading, and imperfect development evaluation system. The “decentralization” concept of blockchain 3.0 technology can provide guidance value for the management concept innovation of Cultural and Creative Industry Park, and the embedding of technologies such as “smart contract”, “distributed ledger”, and “digital currency” can promote the construction of “programmable management system of Cultural and Creative Industry Park”. According to the analysis path of architecture, function system, and application scenario of park management, this paper constructs the architecture from consensus layer, network layer, and data layer, constructs the function system from the public chain, alliance chain, and private chain, and locates the application scenario from the dimensions such as industrial chain management and government supervision and management; thus, the direction and focus of management innovation of blockchain 3.0 technology embedded in Cultural and Creative Industry Park are clarified. The research results of this paper have good theoretical guidance for the management subjects of Cultural and Creative Industry Park (local government, park management committee, industry organizations, etc.) to determine the path of implementing management innovation by using blockchain 3.0 and to build a scientific park management mechanism.

GRA and CRITIC Method for Intuitionistic Fuzzy Multiattribute Group Decision Making and Application to Development Potentiality Evaluation of Cultural and Creative Garden

In recent years, cultural and creative industry park is becoming a kind of hot industry to promote industrial restructuring and to improve the quality of urban space. For this reason, cultural and creative industrial parks are planning to build across the country. Currently, cultural and creative industrial parks that develop better than others thank to the government’s overall planning, construction, marketing, and management. At the same time, the new cultural and creative industry parks face enormous challenges, such as how to have together the cultural and creative industries and related groups or how to have area cultural creativity. And it is frequently regarded as a multiattribute group decision-making (MAGDM) process. Thus, a novel MAGDM process is needed to tackle it. Depending on the conventional grey relational analysis (GRA) method and intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs), this paper designs a novel intuitive distance-based IF-GRA method for development potentiality evaluation of cultural and creative garden. First of all, some necessary theories related to IFSs are briefly reviewed. In addition, since subjective randomness frequently exists in determining criteria weights, the weights of criteria are decided objectively by utilizing the CRITIC method. Afterwards, relying on novel distance measures between IFSs, the GRA method is extended to the IFSs to calculate assessment score of each alternative. Eventually, an application about development potentiality evaluation of cultural and creative garden and some comparative analysis is given. The results think that the designed method is useful for development potentiality evaluation of cultural and creative garden.

Evaluation and Repair of Construction Damage to an Old Factory Building

This paper describes the performance based seismic rehabilitation of an old four-story RC frame building which is being remodeled to be reused as an office building in the creative industrial park. The building is part of the city’s adaptive reuse and redevelopment program. It was designed and constructed in the 1980’s and, therefore, does not meet current design and detailing standards. To make matters worse, two of the first floor columns were badly damaged during renovation and were in danger of collapsing at any time. This paper presents the effects of the accident, failure mechanism, as well as the actions taken to repair the building. The damaged columns are strengthened by a reinforced concrete jacket. The beams closer to damaged columns are retrofitted by externally bonded CFRP. Structural redesign made it feasible to rehabilitate and strengthen the structure sufficient to meet seismic criteria that were judged to be compatible with the site conditions.

The impact of authentic leadership on individual and team creativity: a multilevel perspective

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to develop and test a multilevel conceptual model which explains how authentic leadership (AL), through an innovative team atmosphere and promotion of self-efficacy, influences creativity. The study delineates two pathways from AL to creativity. The first pathway is an indirect effect through an innovative atmosphere at the team level and self-efficacy at the individual level, while the second pathway focuses on the moderating effect of AL between self-efficacy and individual creativity.Design/methodology/approachData were collected from 58 team leaders and 283 employees in a creative industry park in the Yangtze River Delta region from China. Path analysis was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses using the statistical package M-plus (v. 7).FindingsThe results reveal that AL is an important antecedent of creativity. Furthermore, an innovation-based atmosphere at the team level mediates the theorized relationship between AL and individual creativity. However, creative self-efficacy at the individual level does not mediate this relationship. Finally, the study found that AL moderates the relationship between creative self-efficacy and individual creativity.Originality/valueThe implications of this study highlight important considerations for enterprises in creative industry parks within and beyond China. This study provides industry leaders with a clearer and more insightful and coherent means of understanding the mediating mechanism between AL and creativity, and the moderating effects of AL between individual self-efficacy and creativity through a new linkage model.
