dc.description.abstractAustralian national cultural policy discourse from Creative Nation (1994) to Creative Australia (2013) has reflected major technological, social and economic transformations which constitute a rapidly changing, world--‐wide, communications--‐based ‘network society’. This transformed society, powered by informational capitalism and characterised by speed, flexibility, mobility, social networks, media saturation, and identity formation, has afforded a new creativity discourse where culture is reconstructed in, and emerges from, new digital trajectories. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), tailored by social theory, is one form of cultural diagnostics particularly suited to investigating the multi--‐dimensional construction of cultural policy in our contemporary, highly--‐mediated, networked society, and offers a new scholarly ‘vantage point’ that, in this thesis, reveals a delicate balance between cultural and economic values in cultural policy construction.
