Abstract

This chapter offers a critique of current creative economy policy, and its obsession with economic growth over and above other social and ecological priorities. It explores the possibility of more ecologically sustainable and ‘degrown’ creative economies of the future—forms of cultural production and cultural policy that take seriously ecological limits and tries to imagine sustainable creative economy futures.
