| Matt D. | Browsed through it, thought the "creative class rankings" were a bit hokey. Overall, however, although I'm no expert on city structure, societies and cultures, I'd have to say the guy is right on many accounts. Where there's a city run on old-money economy and the preaching of family values, there's likely to be a drain of talent to the hubs of culture and vitality elsewhere. I think "family values" are going to take quite the beating in the coming decades, when the line between genders becomes blurred to the point of obscurity. I also think the idea of a "creative class" is a bit too general, but I like the idea if I understand it correctly. Thanks for the article, -Matt - Tue, 21 Jan 2003 2:52am | ||
