The New Economy, Creativity and Consumption – Two or Three Things I Don’t Believe in

New York University, USA

The new economy’s definition and history need to be questioned, specifically the notion that the ‘creative industries’ are panaceas for economic problems and gifts to cultural studies that make it important. Questions of labor have been occluded in much discussion of the new economy and in cultural studies. Instead of a focus on consumption and meaning, progressive critics need to turn their attention to the new international division of cultural labor.

Key Words: creative industries • new international division of cultural labor
