AHRC communities, culture and creative economies development project ‘Understanding Everyday Participation – Articulating Cultural Values’ literature review

This initial literature review was created collectively by the project team in March
2011, to underpin research development by drawing together our individual interests and multi-disciplinary positions and experiences. Team members selected and annotated representative literature from their own fields and interests against a number of predetermined categories, noting that all categories could be addressed on the basis of different theoretical, methodological, empirical, disciplinary approaches and encouraging diversity in approach to establish a truly
interdisciplinary approach to our subject matter. The resulting annotations and their categorisations form a ‗conversation‘ about the key terms and concepts that
underpin the basis of the UEP project: culture and its values, participation, the
‗everyday‘, community and governance. The literature is presented below following a brief description of each category heading, in alphabetical order.
