This report reviews cultural policy literature and data gathered by IFACCA over several years to address two main issues relating to political involvement in arts support: how much influence do governments have over arts funding; and how much influence should governments have over arts funding.
The report provides background context regarding the independence of arts support, but it does not argue for any particular institutional model. It takes a neutral stance, looking at cultural policy models and frameworks, surveying the incidence of different approaches around the world, and summarising views about the strengths and weaknesses of the two main approaches.
