Reviews
'[An] intellectual delight for scholars, teachers, and artists who want to develop a systemic and comprehensive understanding of arts entrepreneurship as an academic field; a social, economic, and cultural phenomenon; or simply a term full of controversies and possibilities. For scholars interested in contributing to the scholarly work of arts entrepreneurship, this book can be viewed as a compass of the most significant conversations and theoretical constructs. For educators, this book clarifies the theoretical rationales and practical pathways for curriculum and pedagogical development of arts entrepreneurship as a specialized field connected to but fundamentally different from theentrepreneurship training of business schools. [...] Essig's insightful piece of work is a bold reimagination of non-capitalist ways of living, creating, and influencing for artists.' -- Wen Guo, Artivate: A Journal of Entrepreneurship in the Arts
