Creative Cities
Šťáva, Zdeněk ; Juračková, Simona (advisor) ; Hucková, Barbara (referee)
The aim of this work is to introduce the concept of Creative Cities, to describe briefly its essential parts and to assess the possibility of its applicability in the Czech Republic. This work deals in particular with cities and their inhabitants, entrepreneurial and non-entrepreneurial entities and the relations between them. However, it is not the ambition of this work to give instructions how to create a prosperous city. The purpose of the concept is not to become a creative city of the world but to become a creative city for the world or to become creative for one's own city. The concept of a creative city is a recommendation, rather than a manual, how to make the most of the potential of any cityin order to make it a better place for life.
