The 10th International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR'2018) will take place at Tallinn University, Estonia on 21-25 August, 2018.

ICCPR aims to provide an outlet for an interdisciplinary and international exploration of the meaning, function and impact of cultural policies. Such policies may be explicit, in that their objectives are openly described as cultural, or implicit, in that their cultural objectives are concealed or described in other terms.

The theme of ICCPR'2018 is The Cultural Governance of Global Flows: Past and Future. This theme refers to the emergence of complex global flows that present contemporary societies with novel challenges and have high relevance for shaping but also understanding cultural policy in the making worldwide. These include forced as well as unforced migrations; new global divisions in cultural labour; cultural tourism; novel forms of content distribution; emergent international networks and platforms enabling cultural exchange; global trade with (big) data on cultural practices; and attempts of reimagining and re-evaluating shared values, to name some.

Keynote lectures will be delivered by Prof. J.P Singh (University of Edinburgh), Prof. Jose van Dijck (Utrecht University), Prof. Joseph Straubhaar (University of Texas at Austin), and Prof. Madina Tlostanova (Linköping University).
