Saturday Night or Sunday Morning? From Arts to Industry — New Forms of Cultural Policy.

Who or what is doing most to shape British culture in the late 1980s? The authors look back at the successes and failures of past Labour policies for 'the arts', nationally and locally. In doing so they pay particular attention to the GLC administration between 1981 and 1986, and the subsequent policies of the Greater London Enterprise Board with its remit to intervene in the commercial sector of the cultural economy.
