Publisher Synopsis
"'Created in China: the Great New Leap Forward' is a path-breaking book about China's new creative culture. A double treat for academic and industry readers, it changes the way we think about China." - Jing Wang, author of Brand New China: Advertising, Media, and Commercial Culture "Impeccably researched and brimming with insights, Keane's book will be the gateway for all scholars entering the field of creative polices in China for many years to come." - Andrew Ross, author of Fast Boat to China--Lessons from Shanghai "Michael Keane has gone into territory where no other author has been. This is a fresh and provocative account of how Chinese culture is responding to international challenges." - Zhang Xiaoming, Program Leader, Blue Book of China's Cultural Industry, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences "The quality of Chinese creativity is not in doubt. The story has been wonderfully recounted in Joseph Needham's History of Science and Civilization in China. We are now seeing a new narrative which could be called 'The History of Art, Innovation and Civilization in China'. In this, Michael Keane is a spirited and expert guide." - John Howkins author of The Creative Economy: How People Make Money from Ideas Recommended by CHOICE (June 2008 Vol. 45 No. 10) 'Michael Keane offers the finest and most insightful assessment to date of China's creative industry initiatives.]...[Rather than peering through the lens of national policy proclamations and grand institutional gestures, Keane offers vivid and critical accounts of dozens of enterprises and intiatives.' - Michael Curtin, University of Wisconsin, Madison, The China Journal July 2009 "Keane's work is the first comprehensive study of China's budding creative economy. Overall, Keane's work is a timely study contributing enormously to the growing literature on the latest development of Chinese economy and culture. It should interest primarily students and scholars in China studies, cultural studies, media studies, and globalization studies. Thanks to its multi-disciplinary approach, it will also appeal to scholars, students and general readers interested in China's economics, international business, and industrial development." - Hui Faye Xiao, Ph.D., University of Kansas; Journal of International and Global Studies Read more...
