Cambridge Journal of Regions, Economy and Society, 2012, vol. 6, issue 1, 23-35

Abstract: The article explores whether and how creative industries are surviving the current downturn in order to understand whether they will be in a position to contribute to UK’s economic growth. The argument suggested here is that creative industries are crucial for recasting UK manufacturing so that parts of it can be competitively located in the UK. The only manufacturing activities that the UK can convincingly and sustainably aim to retain and grow are the high value-added, high innovation and high creativity ones.
