讨论全球社会需要讨论各行各业以知识为基础的活动的主要特点。它的主要特点是基于创造力、创新、自由和网络。这样一个社会的出现对社会科学的所有学科都提出了若干挑战。在这样的背景下，社会学家必须在实践中面对当代全球社会所面临的理论、方法和经验挑战。在这种情况下，从跨学科的角度研究创意城市有助于对这一现象和现实中概念的不同层面进行批判性解读。《创意城市和基于知识的城市发展高级模型研究手册》提供了全球创意城市的全球模型和最佳实践，并阐明了不同的理论蓝图，以更好地理解当代全球社会。在定义创意城市、全球社会和创意阶层的关键概念的同时，本书还阐明了枢纽、公园和园区之间的主要差异及其对知识型发展的贡献。这本综合性参考书涵盖了知识经济、社会包容和城市流动等主题，非常适合社会学家、城市规划师/设计师、政治学家、经济学家、人类学家、历史学家、决策者、研究人员、院士和学生。
Handbook of Research on Creative Cities and Advanced Models for Knowledge-Based Urban Development
Discussing global society entails discussing the predominant characteristics of knowledge-based activities in all walks of life. Its main characteristics are based on creativity, innovation, freedom, and networking. The emergence of such a society poses several challenges to all disciplines of social sciences. Within such a context, sociologists must have practical encounters to the theoretical, methodological, and empirical challenges imposed within contemporary global society. In this vein, studying creative cities from an interdisciplinary perspective helps provide critical readings of the phenomenon and the different levels of the concept in reality. The Handbook of Research on Creative Cities and Advanced Models for Knowledge-Based Urban Development provides global models and best practices of creative cities worldwide and illustrates different theoretical blueprints for the better understanding of contemporary global society. While defining key concepts of creative cities, global society, and creative class, the book also clarifies the main differences between hubs, parks, and precincts and their contributions to knowledge-based development. Covering topics that include knowledge economy, social inclusion, and urban mobility, this comprehensive reference is ideal for sociologists, urban planners/designers, political scientists, economists, anthropologists, historians, policymakers, researchers, academicians, and students.
