Craft labour and creative industries (2010, background): “…it is entirely likely that craft labour will come under close scrutiny by government and employers in the forthcoming period, if only to ensure its organisations and practices are tailored to the demands of what is now optimistically termed the ‘creative economy’ (DCMS 2008, Higgs et al. 2008).”
Unrewarded careers in the creative class: The strange case of bohemian graduates (2010, background): “…they do pose the question: if bohemians are so important for economic growth (Florida 2002a, 2002b, 2002c) and such a significant part of the UK economy - as much public policy claims (DCMS and BERR 2008, Higgs et al. 2008, The Work Foundation 2008), why are they not rewarded by the labour market?”
The disappearing arts: creativity and innovation after the creative industries (2009, background): “Other work (Howkins 2001, Florida 2002) claims that ‘human capital’ is the mechanism of transmission, in essence that there are more people working in creative occupations in the wider economy than in the cultural sectors (Higgs et al. 2008).”

The concentric circles model of the cultural industries (2008, background): “…studies to examine the structure of the cultural workforce (Throsby, 2003), and has recently been examined more closely by Cunningham (2006) and Higgs et al. (2008), who interpret the two-by-two classification (creative/non-creative industries by creative/non-creative workers) as identifying a…”
