Economia criativa sob a ótica da geografia: avanços e a reorientação das atividades criativas correlacionadas ao espaço geográfico

Abstract

The main objective of this article is to raise questions regarding the complex interactions between local and creative economies. To do so, a review of the literature dealing with the creative economy from a geographical perspective is carried out, with emphasis on authors such as Richard Florida, Amaral Filho, Ana Fani Carlos and Milton Santos. Special attention is given to approaches that address the issues of mode of production, trajectories and other characteristics associated with the identity of the place that affect the development of creative economies. Also treated are those approaches that deal with the many ventures associated with the creative economy and how labour relations manifest themselves in geographic space. Also noteworthy are the studies of Economic Geography that seek to understand the relations between creative economy and society based on principles that emphasize the importance of local. Finally, given the importance of factors such as the structure and spatial dynamics of networks, territoriality and locality, the relevance of studies that address the creative economy from a geographic perspective is explored, especially by its capacity to explain how the different realities or manifestations of this type of economy reflectin inequalities and conditions that at the same time characterize the place and mark the differences between the localities.
