The Critical Mass: A Trigger Parameter For Cultural And Creative Cluster Strategies In Metropolises
Proceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA, 2020 Cultural clusters are considered to be means by which cities become metropolises and accelerate urban development. Therefore, the presence of resources and actors “critical mass” is the main condition for initiating a clustering process.
