In response to Industrial restructuring and old city decline in post-industrial period, using cultural activities and culture industry to guide urban regeneration has become a core development strategy for local governments in developed countries or regions. Looking at the rise and development of culture-led regeneration of old cities worldwide, three patterns have emerged one after another: at first, constructing large-scale cultural flagship projects as catalyst for old city economic revival; next, attracting the creative class to settle down in order to develop local cultural and creative industries; the latest trend is emphasis on community activation and mobilizing public participation to promote the comprehensive development of declined communities. These three culture-led regeneration patterns may provide some useful enlightenments for the emerging culture planning and development path of urban regeneration in China. |
