Abstract Details

2019, Doctor of Philosophy, Ohio State University, Arts Administration, Education and Policy.
This dissertation studies Creative Placemaking (CPM) policy of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) from a social network perspective. Bridging the literature in urban arts policy, theories of public policy process, and social network analysis, the dissertation is intended to analyze the socio-political dynamics of federal CPM policy at both federal and local level from a social network perspective. At the federal level, the dissertation research focuses on explicating the multiple political intentions and coalition building strategies of the NEA by analyzing the hyperlink network patterns of national CPM partners. At the local level, the research aims to unlock the black box of power dynamics and policy process in the CPM-catalyzed arts-led community revitalization of Franklinton, a historic neighborhood at Columbus, OH. Drawing from the Triple-Bottom Line theory, the analysis on the national CPM policy network discovers a set of coalition building strategies of the NEA driven by a virtuous value cycle of social equity, artistic innovation, and financial sustainability. The research tests a series of hypotheses on the outcome and network formation mechanism of the Franklinton project based on Advocacy Coalition Framework and Ecology of Game. Integrating the statistical results and interview data analysis, the research discovers an inconsistent “theory of change” proposed by the CPM policy that federal policy values and the local practices and outcomes disconnect from one another.
