Repensar las políticas culturales locales

Abstract

In May 2019, the Seminar “Rethinking local cultural policies- Local policies as creators of cultural capital,” was held in Valladolid (Spain). Issues regarding actual and future local cultural agendas were presented and discussed, on the occasion of the fortieth anniversary of the first democratic municipal elections in Spain in the second half of the twentieth century. Strengthening local cultural capital, recovering political leadership for culture, fighting the cultural and gender gap in culture and bringing cultural rights together with cultural and creative industries were some of the topics discussed in the session.
