Impact of war on individual life-cycle creativity: tentative evidence in relation to composersJournal of Cultural Economics - Tập 37 - Trang 347-358 - 2012
Karol J. Borowiecki, John W. O’Hagan
The relationship between conflict and individual life-cycle artistic output is
ambiguous, both a priori and in terms of the evidence. To address this question
in relation to composers, we employ a sample of 115 prominent classical
composers born after 1800 and attempt to link their annual productivity with the
incidence of wars. While the sample is small and the measure of creative
productivity li... hiện toàn bộ
Joke economics: the low profile of comedy in the economics of arts and cultureJournal of Cultural Economics -
Alan Collins
AbstractDespite being a globally significant form of art and culture, the
performance of comedy has seemingly maintained a very low profile in cultural
economics. The case for greater research scrutiny of this art form is advanced
alongside some possible reasons for the relatively low academic attention
devoted to comedy. The scope for considering comedy in economic terms is also
considered, and a... hiện toàn bộ
The impact of supplier bargaining power on the advertising costs of movie sequelsJournal of Cultural Economics - Tập 39 - Trang 43-64 - 2014
Judy Ma, Dongling Huang, M. V. Shyam Kumar, Andrei Strijnev
Movie sequels, a type of brand extension, are prevalent in today’s motion
picture industry. Prior literature on brand extensions supports the intuition
that attaching established brand names (e.g., titles of box-office hits) to new
products decreases advertising costs. We counter this intuition and examine
factors that may increase advertising costs for movie sequels. Specifically, we
investigate ... hiện toàn bộ
Characteristics of Italian art restoration firms and factors influencing their adoption of laser technologyJournal of Cultural Economics - Tập 32 - Trang 3-34 - 2007
Chiara Verbano, Karen Venturini, Giorgio Petroni, Anna Nosella
Given the limited number of studies on this topic, the aim of this study is to
better understand the characteristics of art restoration firms in Italy, with
particular reference to their use of innovative technologies such as laser
technology. The paper is supported by a survey conducted in a sample of 100
companies. The factors that have led firms to adopt or resist the adoption of
the laser were... hiện toàn bộ
Estimating preferences for the performing arts from referendum votesJournal of Cultural Economics - Tập 43 - Trang 397-419 - 2019
Katharina E. Hofer
The value of the performing arts to the population can be elicited from
referendum outcomes. The analyses typically rely on the (strong) assumption of
full voter turnout. I show theoretically that when turnout is ignored,
coefficients of variables related positively (negatively) to turnout yield
upward (downward)-biased coefficients. For an empirical application, I use the
example of a 2009 refere... hiện toàn bộ
“Let’s make lots of money”: the determinants of performance in the recorded music sectorJournal of Cultural Economics - Tập 42 - Trang 287-307 - 2017
Juan D. Montoro-Pons, Manuel Cuadrado-García
This research analyzes the performance of 467 record labels in eight European
countries over a period of 13 years (2003–2015). The main goal is to explain a
relative measure of profitability in terms of observed variables, although the
nature of the dataset also allows us to include non-observed firm and country
effects. To this end alternative models are estimated and three main research
question... hiện toàn bộ
