Abstract

Cultural heritage has been recognized as fundamental for local development. In particular, some recent works have highlighted the role of sophisticated transmission channels of this relationship, that is local creativity and cosmopolitan identity. Following a territorial perspective, the present work aims at combining the two approaches, in the belief that there could be a synergic interplay between creativity and cosmopolitan identity, reinforcing their individual effects. Accordingly, an original conceptual and operational taxonomy characterizing cultural cities is put forward. The contribution of the different identified patterns to urban and regional growth is assessed, as well as their capacity to valorize cultural participation. El patrimonio cultural ha sido reconocido como fundamental para el desarrollo local. En particular, algunos trabajos recientes han destacado el papel de los sofisticados canales de transmisión de esta relación, como son la creatividad local y la identidad cosmopolita. Siguiendo una perspectiva territorial, el presente estudio busca combinar los dos enfoques, en la creencia de que podría haber una interacción sinérgica entre la creatividad y la identidad cosmopolita, que refuerza sus efectos individuales. En consecuencia, se propone una taxonomía conceptual y operativa original que caracteriza a las ciudades culturales. Se evalúa la contribución de los diferentes modelos identificados al crecimiento urbano y regional, así como su capacidad para valorar la participación cultural. 文化遺産は地域の発展に重要であるものと認識されてきた。特に最近の研究では、この関係、すなわち地域の創造性と国際的アイデンティティの洗練された伝達経路の役割が強調されている。地域的観点から、本研究は、創造性と国際的アイデンティティに相乗的相互作用があり、それぞれの効果を強化することができると信じて、2つの方法を組み合わせることを目的とする。そこで、文化都市を特徴づける概念的および操作的な独自の分類法を提案する。特定された異なるパターンの、都市と地域の成長に対する寄与と、文化的参加の価値を決定する能力を評価する。
