CALL FOR BOOK CHAPTERS, Routledge book series Research in the Creative and Cultural Industries :

“RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTION IN THE CULTURAL & CREATIVE INDUSTRIES. Actions, policies, and strategies for a sustainable future”, deadline end of December 2023

Editors of the Book: Elisa SALVADOR, ESSCA School of Management, France, and Ilaria PAPPALEPORE, University of Westminster, London, UK.

‘Responsible Consumption and Production’ (SDG 12) is one of the 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) that form the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015.

This book will focus on consumption and production in the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) with a particular attention to environmental sustainability, but also to the links between CCIs and the development of sustainable tourism and sustainable tourism cities.

This Book provides an opportunity to discover how the CCIs’ are embracing the challenge of sustainable development and to highlight best practice, barriers, and sustainable solutions being implemented, with a focus on SDG 12. Case studies of responsible consumption and production in different geographic and cultural contexts will provide a significant added value to the existing literature on this topic. This focus and associated analyses will advance our knowledge and contribute to discussions about the role of responsible consumption and production in the CCIs and open new avenues of research.

We invite contributions that reflect an empirical nature, based on qualitative and/or quantitative research, including critical and multi-disciplinary perspectives. We welcome cross-country comparisons and international case studies based on primary and/or secondary data.

Deadline for extended abstracts summarizing potential chapter contributions is end of December 2023.
