KPY Yearbook
Founded in 2008, the Cultural Policy and Management Yearbook will be an academic/professional journal addressing cultural policy and cultural management issues. The goal of the Yearbook is to promote a new understanding towards cultural policy issues in Turkey, paying more attention to more inclusive and participatory approaches which take cultural diversity of the country into account. In addition it will also include the recent developments of the cultural sector in Turkey and throughout the world and its contribution to the cultural management. It aims to build on the resources of the Cultural Policy and Management (KPY)
The cultural policy and management unit is created within the Cultural Management Department of the Istanbul Bilgi University (an institutional member of ENCATC) and its partners such as European Cultural Foundation (Amsterdam); Boekmanstichting (Amsterdam) and Anadolu Kültür (Istanbul). KPY encourages an international and interdisciplinary approach to cultural management and policy theory and practice embracing social, political, philosophical, cultural, architectural, legal studies and the arts.
Each edition will have a “Dossier” attributed to a special theme of cultural policy related issue, which will be announced with an open call for papers; also miscellaneous articles will be commissioned and/or translated. The Yearbook also spotlights developments in the practice of cultural policy and management through original interviews with leading national/international cultural policy and management theorists and practitioners, and will also publish conference extracts, book reviews. There will be a special section concerned with the latest developments of local cultural policy making in the cities. It will be finalised by the latest headlines and relevant updates of the Turkish legislation.
The Yearbook is planned to be published both in English and Turkish, and will be distributed with the contribution of Boekmanstichting throughout Europe. The Yearbook issues an Open Call for Papers and aims to produce one issue per annum.

- Endnotes and references: Endnotes should be numbered consecutively and double-spaced on a separate, attached sheet. Reference citations within the text should consist of the authors’ last name and the date of publication, enclosed within parentheses, and should be inserted before the punctuation. If several citations are needed, separate them with semicolons, and list alphabetically. Give the page number only if necessary.

Traver’s latest book (1987) has been criticised by some (James, 1990; Livingstone, 1991) but is generally approved by others (Lewis, 1992; Stew, 1992; Vorgang, 1993). The jury (Howard et al., 1990; Wayne, 1988) have agreed that

Call for Papers
KPY Cultural Policy & Management Yearbook 2 (2010)
The second edition of the KPY Cultural Policy and Management Yearbook calls for the submission of academic articles and book reviews on cultural policy and management approaches to ‘Social Diversity and Cultural Participation’. Papers to be published in the 2010 edition should explore the proposed theme within the national (Turkish) and/or European context.
Academic work discussing the impact and achievements of cultural diversity (and related policies) in patterns of cultural supply and demand as well as the role of arts management and cultural policies in multi-ethnic and multi-religious societies are especially welcome. The second issue of the KPY Yearbook also encourages contributions which explore the challenges of cultural management and policy-making in socio-economic transition and political turbulence.
The overall topic of the special thematic dossier of the second issue is ‘Diversity and Participation’. Papers published under this heading might reflect on:
- The political and historical factors, and legal and philosophical debates, which conform or conflict with cultural diversity and participation;
- The role of arts and culture in democracy, and different forms of social involvement that are best linked to arts and cultural work;
- The role of civil society in stimulating cultural development programmes and entrepreneurial/managerial models in conflict and post-conflict areas;
- Emerging new cultural policy models (funding schemes, public-private partnerships etc.) catering more effectively to specific intercultural programmes.
Deadline for submission: 1 March 2010
