Abstract
- This study aims to explore the policy discourse of the creative economy and its implementations in the developmental state's creative economy policies, with a case study of the Korean government. By analyzing these policies and comparing them with the British government's policy initiatives of the creative economy, this article finds that the Korean government interprets creative economy as a way of strengthening its leverages on economic sectors and rehabilitating the nation's long-lasting political-economic coalition between the government and several conglomerates, while the notion of “creativity” and creative workers become a sub-discourse of this interpretation.
