Abstract
The creative industries concept was born in the UK, nurtured in Australia (among other countries), but is now being implemented most vigorously in China.
The UK and Australia seem to be pulling back from the concept:
• Critical response to CI policy in the UK; and post-GFC cutbacks limit scope for government action.
• Australia relies on the resources boom; even though recent WIPO report puts Australian ‘copyright industries’ at over 10 percent of GDP (second only to the USA at 11%). Not surprisingly the USA remains happy with the term ‘copyright industries.’
This faltering policy environment in advanced countries may work to their own longer-term economic detriment. The creative industries’ transformative impact on the global economy may come instead from China.
