Publications
One of the major CPR Award outcomes is a series of publications which will present the awarded and completed research projects. We hope it will serve the field of cultural policy research and that of cultural practice. We also hope that the CPRA series will help talented young researchers to gain a greater profile within their own academic disciplines and within the academic circles of Europe and possibly beyond.
The first publication is the completed research project Why we need European cultural policies: the impact of EU enlargement on cultural policies in transition countries by Nina Obuljen, the first Winner of the CPR Award (2004). We hope it will contribute to a better understanding of the impact of Community policies on culture and the possibility of streamlining these effects positively. It should certainly inform debates on a European agenda for cultural policies.
