This paper aims to examine the applicability of Nonaka’s theory of organizational knowledge creation to urban regeneration of the Creative Town Initiative (CTI) in Huddersfield, focusing on the background activities in late 1980s of CTI. This paper is the fourth one of a series of papers. This series of papers aims to examine the applicability of Nonaka’s theory of organizational knowledge creation to the empirical context of urban regeneration in the UK and the Creative Town Initiative (CTI) in Huddersfield in particular. Before examining the application / relevance of Nonaka’s theoretical frameworks to urban regeneration through the process of making the CTI proposal (in 1991-96), which will be discussed in the subsequent papers, this paper, as well as the previous paper, looked at the background of CTI. In this paper, the activities in the late 1980s which led to CTI have particularly been examined, regarding them as the ‘second’ knowledge spiral of cultural industries. In conclusion, the story of the activities in the late 1980s associated with CTI supported Nonaka’s theoretical frameworks in many ways. |
