Abstract: The purpose of this Special Issue is to contribute to the still under-researched debate on regional and urban economic resilience by proposing some reflections focused on the contribution of art and culture to revitalization of de-activated spaces. In this sense, the idea that some creative regions, ‘corridors’ or cities are also resilient is to be examined to see the extent they are capable of re-energization. This means not only preserving but also transforming themselves in response to external pressures, generating local development, innovation and growth. The contributions included then offer, using a multidisciplinary perspective – in terms of theoretical approaches, research methodologies and empirical findings – an interesting contribution to a better understanding of the concept of this specific kind of regional and urban resilience. The Special Issue is composed of eight articles.
