Culture Is Bad for You: Inequality in the Cultural and Creative Industries

by Mark Taylor, Dave O'Brien, Orian Brook

Book Overview

The book demonstrates that cultural jobs are the preserve of the most privileged, a 'creative class' in society, and always have been: there was no golden age for social mobility in culture. It shows how women, people of colour, and those of working class origins are missing from key parts of the workforce and audience for culture.
