In this exciting new book Angela McRobbie charts the ‘euphoric’ moment of the new creative economy, as it rose to prominence in the UK during the Blair years, and considers it from the perspective of contemporary experience of economic austerity and uncertainty about work and employment. McRobbie makes some bold arguments about the staging of creative economy as a mode of ‘labour reform’; she proposes that the dispositif of creativity is a fine-tuned instrument for acclimatising the expanded, youthful urban middle classes to a future of work without the raft of entitlements and security which previous generations had struggled to win through the post-war period of social democratic government. Adopting a cultural studies perspective, McRobbie re-considers resistance as ‘line of flight’ and shows what is at stake in the new politics of culture and creativity. She incisively analyses ‘project working’ as the embodiment of the future of work and poses the question as to how people who come together on this basis can envisage developing stronger and more protective organisations and associations. Scattered throughout the book are excerpts from interviews with artists, stylists, fashion designers, policy-makers, and social entrepreneurs.

When I tell Wesley about the futile search for my mom, he asks for my help in a search of his own. He’s looking for a friend of his, a woman who went mysteriously missing not more than a month ago. Before I know it, we’re working together. But that’s all it is: Work. I’m not about to give him a second chance. WESLEY I stayed far away from The Pact for a reason. But Duncan is on a warpath. He’s not going to leave finding Rosabel to anyone else. And with the rest of the guys coming to Eureka Springs to band around him and show their support, I can’t look the other way.
