摘要
The object of study of this research is cultural and creative districts, conceiving them as places of a high cultural and artistic level in which "a set of economic, noneconomic and institutional actors [linked to the cultural and creative industries present in the districts] use some of the shared resources in order to develop a common project, which is simultaneously an economic project and a life project" (Lazzeretti, 2008, p. 328). In a global context where challenges related to inequality, transport, health and environment are increasingly appearing, creative and cultural industries have progressively attracted more and more interest, both at a political and an academic level (Gross, 2020). Especially during the last twenty years, great confidence has been placed in these industries to ensure the future of digital economy, for it is understood that they stimulate urban regeneration, are part of the solution for disparities in local and regional development (Garcia Carrizo & Granger, 2019), suppose a way to address income inequality and a are catalysts to address exclusion and marginalization (Chapain & Comunian, 2010; Garcia Carrizo, 2019, 2021a, 2021c). All this being said, this research analyses the case study of Digbeth, a cultural and creative district located in Birmingham, United Kingdom, which is considered the cradle of the Industrial Revolution. The history and evolution of this space. Special attention is focused on the fact that it is currently being positioned as an environment to live in, work and enjoy through its cultural and creative industries. In addition, this research analyses Digbeth's conservation areas and its public art as a catalyst for urban regeneration.
