“Responsible Consumption and Production in the Creative and Cultural Industries brings together much-needed research on the sustainability of cultural and creative industries. This timely collection provides insights on promoting responsible consumption and production, considering the responsibility of individuals, producers, policies and institutions. The book brings together experts in sustainability research to provide a range of best practices and theoretical insights. It includes detailed case studies and reflections spanning diverse sectors from across the world. It offers opportunities to critically reflect on the contribution of initiatives – such as sustainable tourism and the circular economy – that have become staple practices in addressing our contemporary society's challenges. It will quickly become an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners looking to understand how cultural and creative industries can move towards a sustainable future”. Roberta Comunian, Department of Culture, Media and Creative Industries, King’s College London, UK. “Although sustainability has been discussed for decades from the most diverse perspectives, this topic has yet to find an original formulation for the cultural and creative industries, remaining a relatively underexplored field. The volume edited by Salvador and Pappalepore has the merit of addressing sustainability from the perspective of all potentially involved actors—cultural organizations, creative enterprises, stakeholders, and consumers—within an international framework. The book addresses the critical intersections of cultural policy, tourism, and circular economy through practical case studies and innovative strategies, offering an overview of the key economic areas and sectors where sustainability is becoming not just a constraint but a driver of growth. A valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers aiming to align creative practices with sustainability goals”. Massimiliano Nuccio, Foscari University of Venice,VSM Venice School of Management, Italy. “This book brings together the most advanced work explaining how Creative and Cultural Industries (CCIs) can contribute to society's sustainable development goals. While CCIs are often seen as having a negative impact on sustainability, the various chapters in this book convincingly demonstrate that CCIs can play an important role in promoting sustainable solutions, particularly in the field of sustainable tourism. In my opinion, this book is a real tour de force as one of the first systematic attempts to highlight the conditions under which CCIs can be both vehicles of cultural identity and vehicles of sustainable development for society”. Patrick Cohendet, HEC Montréal, Québec, Canada
