“Publicly Funded Culture and the Creative Industries”
Unter Creative Commons lizenzierte Publikation des britischen Demos Think Tank:
The relationships between publicly funded culture and the creative industries are often assumed to be clear and straightforward. In some cases this is true, but there are more complex factors at work. The creative industries are poorly understood in policy, partly because they often do not conform to traditional expectations about how businesses work, and partly because their scale makes them hard to measure and hard to engage with. This paper calls for new understandings of how culture can benefit the creative industries.
Regierung im Internet
Ein neuer Bericht über die E-Government(nennt man scheinbar nur in Deutschland so) Aktivitäten, findet sich unter http://www.governmentontheweb.org/.
The report to Parliament ‘Government on the internet: progress in delivering information services online’ looked at the progress made by government in delivering services and information online since the NAO last reported in 2002. Government organisations spend some £208 million on websites each year. Usage of the main government websites has risen over time and some sites are widely and repeatedly used. For example 78 per cent of Jobcentre Plus online service users visited its sites at least once a week. However, the study reports a number of areas where departments and agencies could improve value for money in the provision of online information and services.
The researchers found that:
- Government web sites tend to be text heavy and complex to understand and to navigate
- Many agencies have little information about how much online provision of services costs
- Most departments lack sufficient information about who is using their sites and how they are being used
The team was led by Professor Patrick Dunleavy of LSE and Professor Helen Margetts of the University of Oxford.
