Are the concepts of cultural sustainability and entrepreneurship commensurable? Many people would say that the underlying, or guiding principles of the two concepts means that they could never, effectively, go together.
The conceptual framework, Culturally Sustainable Entrepreneurship (CSE) was developed for cultural policy development, but has broad application for creative industries, tourism, marketing, and other applications where questions of cultural sustainability emerge.
Culturally sustainable entrepreneurship encourages adapting entrepreneurial models that sustain and enhance the values and traditions of a community for its self-defined benefits, rather than imposing economic entrepreneurial models that compromise the essential cultural features of a community.
CSE was developed by the instructor of this course—a cultural policy scholar—with a co-researcher whose area of expertise is the tourism industry. They developed the model through research on cultural policies among the Hopi (an indigenous American people), the Batlokoa of South Africa, and the experimental community of Arcosanti in the US. Other researchers have used the model for examining traditional textile production of the Zhuang people in China, and for assessing cultural perspectives of retail markets in China. The main thrust of the framework is the development of policies and strategies for economic and political empowerment of micro-populations and communities (that is, non-dominant groups) whose culture may be compromised or threatened, and who seek entrepreneurial strategies that support, rather than compromise, cultural identity.
The issue of cultural sustainability is timely given the increased focus by UNESCO, other international organizations, and national governments on creative industries development. Despite an official stance that creative industries support cultural diversity, a growing number of researchers have identified ways in which creative industries development impedes local artistic and cultural development.
This seminar-based course will be a hybrid online/face-to-face course that engages students in exploration of the CSE and possible applications for cultural policy development for cultural sustainability. Students will do research on current problems of where sustainability of culture is threatened and develop possible policy solutions. Although CSE is a feature and beginning point of the seminar, students are not required to use the CSE framework in their work. Students will engage in online interaction with the instructor for the majority of the course. One or two weeks of the final portion of the course will include a visit by instructor to ZU campus for face-to-face interaction with students.
The seminar will also include an excursion to the WÜRTH foundation. When visiting the museums and the new concert hall (October 4th and 5th), we will have the opportunity to discuss with the top management of the foundation the issue of cultural entrepreneurship in the context of a glokal enterprise. The excursion to Schwäbisch Hall and Künzelsau is taking place takes on 4th and 5th of October.
