Realizing the Values of Art — Erwin Dekker, Valeria Morea, & Stefanie Haeffele

Hayek Program Podcast

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Stefanie Haeffele interviews Erwin Dekker and Valeria Morea on their new book, Realizing the Values of Art: Making Space for Cultural Civil Society. Dekker and Morea discuss their concept of cultural civil society, how art is practiced in creative circles and co-creative communities. They consider the environment from which prominent art movements emerged in the modern day, highlighting case-studies on hip hop, festivals, and a queer museum, and analyze the role of public policy in the worlds of art and equality.
