Measuring creativity in the EU member states

Abstract

El continuo crecimiento del papel de la creatividad en el crecimiento económico ha generado un creciente interés entre los investigadores por el estudio de la economía creativa, convirtiéndola en una cuestión muy relevante dentro del ámbito político y de la investigación. Esta creciente importancia del concepto de la economía creativa ha generado un gran interés por la definición y la estimación de índices de creatividad. Estos índices son una herramienta analítica de gran utilidad para evaluar el impacto económico de la economía creativa, así como para la medición de la efectividad de medidas políticas. En este trabajo comparamos doce índices de creatividad alternativos identificando sus ventajas e inconvenientes. Posteriormente, basándonos en los índices de creatividad evaluados, proponemos uno nuevo. Los resultados obtenidos en la estimación mediante este nuevo índice de creatividad se comparan con los del índice de creatividad global de Florida desarrollado en Florida et al. (2011).

With the increasing role of creativity in economic growth, researchers have gained great interest in the study of the creative economy and placed it as an important topic in their research and political agendas. Given the increasing importance attributed by researchers and policymakers to the concept of creativity and creative economy, the increasing interest of researchers in defining and estimating indexes of creativity is no surprise. These indexes provide analytical tools to assess the economic impact of the creative economy and are useful to measure the effectiveness of political decisions. In this paper we compare twelve selected indexes of creativity and we identify their strengths and weaknesses. Then, based on the evaluated indexes of creativity, we propose a new one. Estimating the proposed index of creativity, we compare our results with Florida’s global creativity index (Florida et al., 2011).
