Economia da cultura e desenvolvimento nos munícipios do estado de Mato Grosso

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the cultural development in the municipalities of the state of Mato Grosso. For this purpose, secondary data on establishments and jobs in the creative economy were used, as well as socioeconomic indicators and the cultural institutional environment (cultural management structure, public expenditures and cultural offer). With the data analysis, it was possible to notice a relationship between socioeconomic factors and cultural development. Creative municipalities seem to present better socioeconomic results, such as: higher average income, higher per capita GDP, better educational indicators, as well as a greater supply of cultural facilities, justifying further discussions on the topic of culture and joint development.
