Subsidy Equals Submission? Cultural Subsidies and Ecologically Sustainable Development

Stockholm Resilience Centre

It is common practice among Western democratic societies to supply art and cultural goods on a public basis.

A prime example is the current debate in Europe about whether state involvement in art and culture implies that cultural activities should advocate the idea of ecologically sustainable development.
