“…There is debate around the definition of creativity, (Mumford, 2003;Dali and Caidi, 2017;Robinson, 2011; what inhibits it (McAlpine, 2017), ethical tensions, (Bill, 2017), ambivalent attitudes , provision of a framework for understanding critical creativity (Brodin and Frick, 2011) and suggestions of environmental facilitators of creativity (Robinson, 2011). However, we found no work on the efficacy of development activity in respect of creativity and innovation.…”

Purpose In this review paper, the authors are particularly interested in the growth in the scholarly investigation of the efficacy of developmental interventions for doctoral and early career researchers. This paper aims to provide a “State of the Art” overview of the emerging fields of research and suggest areas that command more research. Design/methodology/approach A foundation of key disseminations relating to the new discipline has become established, and it is the outputs of these that the authors look to first in their review. However, much of the work is reported in the proceedings of two specific conferences, known to the authors and does not appear in database searches, which results in a concentration of research in two specific countries, namely, the UK and Australia. Relatively little is found from database searches, however approached, but the authors also report on this work. Findings There is a general gap in the depth of the body of work in all areas of literature relating to research on the practice of developing researchers. We have identified specific areas as the most limited in terms of the body of published research including research governance; work life balance; engagement influence and impact training and creativity and innovation training. Research limitations/implications There is much work as yet unpublished and the practice of rigorous study and publication is not yet generally embedded in this research discipline. Practical implications Without the depth of rigorous and robust findings of research to provide us with evidence of good practice, the emergent discipline will struggle to have integrity in its practice. Continued growth in research in this emergent discipline is essential. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first review of its kind looking at the published research in respect of the development of researchers.

“…To understand how this has happened, Bill (2016Bill ( , 2008 and others (Banks, 2009;Fougere and Solitander, 2010;Prince, 2013) have used approaches derived from Foucault's idea of governmentality. This approach relies on rethinking the term government as, 'the broad sense of procedures for directing human conduct' (Foucault, in Senellart, 2007: 388), and where governmentality refers to the ways in which those procedures are managed, more or less strategically, in line with distinctive rationalities and in order to achieve certain ends (Rose, 1999;Rose et al, 2006).…”

Knowledge exchange in the arts and humanities as creative economy policy assemblage

The creative economy is a complex assemblage of policy, practice and industrial activity, underpinned by apparently novel configurations of cultural and creative work. In recent years, it has become the focus of a number of schemes which have seen major shifts in how UK research councils fund universities. This paper reflects on the work of Research and Enterprise in Arts and Creative Technology (REACT), a major knowledge exchange programme aimed at stimulating growth in the creative sector through collaborations with universities in South West England and South Wales. In the first section, I unpack some of the underpinning logics of the ‘creative turn’ by which creativity has become a key currency in modern economies. I then consider how this shift has affected universities. I next ask how the various rationalities of an economy driven by creativity have moved into the knowledge exchange sphere. I approach this by formulating creative economy policy as a form of governmentality performed through assemblages that facilitate policy transfer. The paper turns to the empirical example of REACT, considering it as an assemblage through which reconfigurations of discourses, spatialities, temporalities, subjects and calculative practices have unfolded. The analysis shows how the multivalent, ad hoc and sometimes contradictory experience of producing an assemblage such as REACT means that policy transfer is never entirely complete nor stable, and that in this sense it is still possible for knowledge exchange programmes to imagine and generate alternative approaches to creativity that are not wholly reducible to a neoliberal or capitalist logic, although they remain implicated therein.

“…El sector público también aparece como un espacio de trabajo, específicamente sobre las racionalidades y mecanismos a través de los cuales los mercados han sido propuestos como alternativas o complementos a la provisión tradicional basada en el Estado de Bienestar (Nyamori, 2009). También aparecen las escuelas (Alves y Barreto, 2009;Niesche, 2010) o las universidades (Amigot y Martínez, 2013;Bill, 2017;Gómez, Jódar, y Bravo, 2015;Morrissey, 2015;Raaper, 2016); algunas investigaciones se centran tanto en escuelas como en universidades (Ball, 2016;Ball y Olmedo, 2013). Aparece también un programa de formación para profesores de escuela (Bocchetti y Oliveira, 2012).…”

“…Estas operaciones colapsan la distinción entre lo cualitativo y lo cuantitativo, y posiblemente obligan a nuevos tipos de desempeño académico que traen aparejadas nuevas subjetividades. De esta manera, el proceso de valorización y crítica de los juicios sociales sobre los productos y los resultados de la investigación se relaciona con nuevas categorías de identificación subjetiva (Bill, 2017). Los académicos se sienten cada vez más presionados por el contexto regulatorio y, por lo tanto, están descontentos con las políticas de evaluación y las regulaciones que dan forma a sus prácticas (Amigot y Martínez, 2013;Raaper, 2016).…”
