Culture Is Bad for You

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the precarious state of art workers, this revised edition critiques the prevailing narrative that culture universally benefits society. It highlights systemic exclusions faced by women, people of color, and working-class individuals within the UK's cultural landscape. Updated to reflect post-COVID realities, it underscores the persistence of inequality and precarity despite promises of change. The book advocates for a significant transformation in cultural and creative industries to truly harness the positive impact of culture on communities.
