任何地方和文化政策之间的关系的理解，在很大程度上已经失去了作为一个新自由主义复兴的修辞批评的一部分，反过来，破坏了文化政策的学科基础。这对我们理解英格兰北部周边地区文化政策的影响产生了特别的影响。尽管今天仍然存在的地理边缘的政治现实，有很少的研究，旨在解决的方式，文化政策已在周边政治文化的背景下运作的例子。本文通过对利物浦和纽卡斯尔盖茨黑德两地文化政策的比较研究，着重探讨地方政府在文化政策制定中的作用，以说明地方政治文化在文化政策制定中的重要性。因此，我们的目的是揭开文化政策的神秘作用，超越其作为全球经济中的修辞政策手段的价值，以了解这种政策在实践中如何被用来验证政治特殊性的概念。因此，其目的是弥合全球和地方的文化政策的作用的假设之间的经验差距，同时探索的机构支持地方领导和合作的艺术和文化政策。
Any understanding of the relationship between place and cultural policy has largely been lost as part of a rhetorical critique of a neo-liberal regeneration which has, in turn, undermined the disciplinary basis of cultural policy. This has had particular consequences for our understanding of the impact of cultural policy in the peripheral north of England. Despite the political realities of geographical peripherality that still persist today, there are very few examples of research designed to address the ways in which cultural policy has been operationalized in the context of peripheral political cultures. This article presents findings from comparative research on cultural policy in Liverpool and NewcastleGateshead, with specific focus on the role of local government in cultural policy making, to show the importance of local political culture in shaping cultural policy. The intention therefore is to demystify the role of cultural policy beyond its value as a rhetorical policy device in a global economy to understand how such policy is used in practice to validate notions of the political particular. The aim is therefore to bridge the empirical gap between global and local assumptions about the role of cultural policy, whilst exploring the institutions underpinning local leadership and collaboration in arts and cultural policy.
