Abstract
The thesis sheds light on the growing discourse of creative economy in developing countries, as also found in the developed world. It is questioned to what extent the creative economy can be applied as local development strategies in Indonesia. To examine the institutionalization process of creative economy policy, several cases are studied, which represent both large cities (Bandung and Yogyakarta) and small and medium-sized cities (Cimahi and Surakarta). It is found that localities in Indonesia have different underlying assumptions in implementing the policy, as deindustrialization is still not witnessed in the country. The creative economy is seen as an alternative to development strategies in the urban competitive milieu by taking advantage of local culture potentials. Nonetheless, the process by which the policy is being institutionalized is different from one another according to local culture attachment, institutional contexts, diversity in actors and the local political economy.
