[ecrea] Call for Papers: Routledge Handbook of Cultural and Creative Industries in Asia

ROUTLEDGE HANDBOOK OF CULTURAL AND CREATIVE INDUSTRIES IN ASIA

CALL FOR CHAPTER PROPOSALS

(Editors: Lorraine Lim and Hye-Kyung Lee)

The proposed book Routledge Handbook of Cultural and Creative Industries
(CCIs) in Asia intends to provide readers with a broad understanding of
the growth and transformation of the CCIs in Asia that have led to its
current state, providing the groundwork that will serve as a key
reference point for further scholarship in this area. The book proposes
that the CCIs in Asia can be more holistically comprehended when we look
at the cycle of stages involved – production, distribution and
consumption. Although the boundaries between them are becoming
increasingly blurred, these three stages of CCIs’ operation constitute
the focal points of our analysis. The editors are seeking work that
draws attention to the participants of these industries, their
strategies and networks, and the organisation of their activities and
continually question if it is possible to find approaches that can be
described as region-specific or ‘Asian’.

This book includes in Asia both East and Southeast Asia (including but
not limited to the following countries: Cambodia, China, Hong Kong,
Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan,
and Thailand) and adopt a broad view of what constitutes the ‘cultural
and creative industries’ (including but not limited to arts markets,
music, film, television, digital platforms such as online literature and
blogs, comics, fashion, video games, and festivals)

The editors are interested in receiving:

1)     - Academic contributions of 5,000- 7000 words corresponding to
one of the following themes: governance, production, consumption,
technology and distribution.

2)     - Reflective chapters of 3000-4000 words with a ‘practice-led’
dimension that highlights the complex dynamics in the operation of the
CCIs and gives insight into the Southeast Asian contexts.

Submission Process:

Please submit abstracts of 250 words to Lorraine Lim ((l.lim /at/ bbk.ac.uk)
<mailto:(l.lim /at/ bbk.ac.uk)>) by 12 June 2015. Please include a brief
