It is either the value system that shapes the aspirations, identity and attitudes of individuals and groups; or the way of life for a particular group of people who are drawn together through customs, religion, language, arts, science or technology. Culture has principles in common with sustainability by bestowing upon current generations cultural heritage and identity, as well as responsibility for safeguarding future cultural diversity and ecological balance. This thesis suggests that cultural values are a key to sustainability and that deliberate strategies and criteria are needed for the arts and creative industries to assist Sustainable Development. The idea that culture is central to sustainable development is based on the fact that sustainability is a concept whereas culture is a human value system and a way of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alix Rhodes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3639037146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783639037142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.28d","brand":"Alix Rhodes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440340283647,"sku":"9783639037142","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2a6c174b-fb35-45a0-a9fc-35fa306d9753.jpg?v=1777181794","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/investing-creatively-in-sustainability-alix-rhodes-9783639037142","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
