Summary
Part II consists of three chapters: chapter 8 on the performing arts, chapter 9 on the economics of museums and built heritage, and chapter 10 on the economic evaluation of cultural policy as it applies to these topics. These chapters build on the previous chapters and apply the economic analysis presented there. This part of the book could be viewed as a summary of the ‘traditional’ economics of the arts and heritage. There is a large literature on the topics that are discussed in these chapters, and not every topic could be included; instead, the part draws selectively on a few topics that have been most influential in cultural economics.
