AVILES-OCHOA, Ezequiel  and  CANIZALEZ-RAMIREZ, Paola M.. Cultural industries and economic growth. A model to study the emergence of creative clusters. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2015, vol.15, n.47, pp.185-216. ISSN 2448-6183.

The clear link between economy and culture revitalizes the interest in cultural industries due to its conceptualization and implementation. However, cultural industries lack the instruments corresponding to its perceptible economic participation. A schema of variables of flourishing industries and a model of measurement are proposed through theories of endogenous growth and new geography. It was found that cultural industries are agglomerated in creative clusters with a system of production of internal economies, whose drive depends on human capital, specialization, consumption, and related variety. As a corollary, the model determines that growth is in function of potentiating such factors in conditioning distinctive processes.

Keywords : cultural industries; cluster; creativity; economic growth.
