Category : Canada
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Nearly every country deals with the question of how to maintain its cultural identity when "global culture" is washing over the earth. Federal policy is driven by the belief that culture is important to all Canadians & that we need to express our sense of ourselves. Canada's model for cultural affirmation is based on respect for freedom of choice & expression; promoting the creation of Canadian content; maintaining shelf space for Canadian cultural products; developing policies for cultural undertakings; forging partnerships with creators; & preserving our heritage to tell our collective story. This model is applied to all 5 facts of culture & heritage: creation, production, distribution, promotion & conservation. This document looks at current questions in the following cultural industries: broadcasting; film & video; music; publishing; newspapers & magazines; multimedia; the arts; heritage.

The Conservation and Presentation of Mosaics: At What Cost?
Author: Jeanne Marie TeutonicoPublisher: Getty Publications
ISBN: 1606065335
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 454
Book Description
In recent years, funding for the conservation of cultural heritage has become increasingly difficult to obtain, and this trend shows no sign of changing significantly in the foreseeable future. The twelfth triennial meeting of the International Committee for the Conservation of Mosaics, held in Sardinia in October 2014, focused on the theme of cost, broadly considered, relating specifically to the preservation and presentation of the world’s mosaic heritage. This handsome, abundantly illustrated volume provides a comprehensive record of the conference. The volume’s sixty-seven papers and posters, comprising contributions from more than one hundred leading experts in the field, reflect the conference’s principal themes: cost, methods of survey and documentation, conservation and management, education and training, backing materials and techniques, presentation and display, and case studies. Papers are presented either in English, French, or Italian; there are abstracts in English and either French or Italian for all entries. The volume will be of interest to conservators, site managers, and others responsible for conserving the mosaic heritage, especially in these challenging times.
New Luxury Management
Author: Emmanuelle Rigaud-LacressePublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319417274
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
Presenting a vision of the luxury sector and its management, this edited book describes “the new luxury” through a comprehensive view of the value chain, from concept to market. The authors argue that the main characteristics of “luxury” are linked to specific resources and competencies found throughout the value chain and that value is a result of the interaction between the brand and stakeholders, and more precisely with their clients. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, New Luxury Management encompasses both strategic and functional aspects of luxury management, providing innovative solutions to the successful creation and management of value across the organization, from leadership, human resources, financial management, marketing and economic perspectives.

Book Description
Dedicated to the consideration of advanced I.T. technologies and their financial applications, this volume contains contributions from an international group of system developers and managers from academia, the financial industry and their suppliers: all actively involved in the development and practical introduction of these technologies into banking and financial organisations.Concentrating on real experience and present needs, rather than theoretical possibilities or limited prototype applications, it is hoped the publication will give a better insight into advanced I.T. practice and potential as it currently exists and motivate today's developers and researchers.In addition to the discussion of a wide range of technologies and approaches to ensure adaptivity, three other major topics are explored in the book: neural networks, classical software engineering techniques and rule-based systems.
