碩士 / 國立政治大學 / 政治學系 / 104 / The focus of political science has shifted gradually from central government to local government since the wave of globalization. One of the important fields in political science is global city research, which is under the framework of political economy. How do global cities respond to the transition of political power? Can a global city, which is situated in the global city system, maintain more than one global city functions, such as attracting foreign investment and developing soft power like culture? Both questions are issues worth analyzing. Meanwhile, the trend of cultural creative industry draw many cities’ attention. Most of the cultural creative industries are clustered in the city. Such prosperity soon led to increasing researches. Cluster theory became the main research approach due to the appearance of clusters. On the policy side, cluster theory points out that both helping policy and stimulating policy are beneficial to industrial clusters. However, the reality reveals that many cultural creative clusters face difficulties and decline, which cannot be explained by cluster theory.
This thesis takes Shanghai, a significant global city in China as example to analyze city government’s autonomy and its’ impact on cultural creative clusters through global city approach. In this case, city government improves the land rent by setting cultural creative clusters. The movement helps government gain plentiful fiscal profit. However, after the land rent has been improved, cultural creative industries will be replaced by commercial activities and lose their living place during rent improving period. Such result was criticized in many previous researches. Nevertheless, in the precondition of industry autonomy, the Shanghai case finds out that appropriate connections with commercial activities foster the mechanism of cultural creative cluster, which is close to cluster theory. The final result of this thesis responds exactly to the two questions about power transition and global city function.
