The Amsterdam-Maastricht Summer University is proud to present the 8th edition of the course: THE VALUE OF CULTURE From: 2-6 August 2004 Where: Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This course will explore both types of interrelationships between economy and culture: economic aspects of culture as well as cultural aspects of the economy. Topics that will be addressed include: - In what respects do markets for art differ from other markets? - Does the mode of financing of cultural goods (market income – government subsidies – charity donations) matter? - How do cultural values and social relationships shape economic life? The course will provide conceptual frameworks, case studies, and practical exercises, which will illuminate the analysis.
