Journal of Cultural Management and Cultural Policy (JCMCP)

The Journal of Cultural Management and Cultural Policy is a peer‑reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing research and discourse on cultural management and cultural policy in international contexts. Since its establishment in 2015 (originally as Zeitschrift für Kulturmanagement and subsequently Zeitschrift für Kulturmanagement und Kulturpolitik), the journal has evolved into a key platform for interdisciplinary analysis of cultural administration, collective cultural practices, policy formulation, and cultural economics. Published twice a year by SAGE Publications Ltd, JCMCP bridges theoretical and practical perspectives from sociology, political science, economics, cultural theory, arts management, and related social sciences. Its scope includes organizational structures of creative enterprises, managerial challenges in the arts, audience and visitor studies, cultural participation and equity, heritage interpretation, cultural economics, and the broader implications of cultural policy decisions. The journal encourages rigorous methodological approaches — including quantitative research, qualitative studies, case studies, exploratory essays, and book reviews — to address pressing cultural sector issues. By fostering a transdisciplinary conversation among scholars, policymakers, and practitioners, JCMCP contributes to the academic foundation for improved cultural governance and creative sector strategies globally. Its semi‑annual publication ensures high‑quality scholarship that captures evolving challenges and innovations in cultural policy and management.
