The Digest describes structures and resources alongside activities and outcomes. It covers the principal domains within the cultural system, and cross-cuts and contextual information are provided on markets, attendance, training and resources. The institutions and organisations which constitute Glasgow’s cultural system are listed in the Appendix to this document. The Digest has been assembled mainly by drawing together existing quantitative material and presenting this in consistent and relevant ways. A number of new analyses of existing data have also been obtained. The contents are in the form of some 169 tables, grouped in 14 sections. A technical appendix is available on request. As necessary, and where possible, the data have been subject to an appropriate level of validation and cross-check to ensure consistency and comparability. The aim is to enable consistent read- across amongst the various tables. The definition of the cultural system remains unchanged from that used in the first edition of the Digest in 2010. It covers performance (drama, dance, music, halls and theatres), the visual arts, the heritage (museums, historic buildings), libraries and archives, literature, and screen culture. Materials on the creative and cultural industries and on tourism, with which the cultural system has close interactions, are also included, but not sport. This Edition provides figures which are updated to the 2017/18 financial year. The dependence on existing materials means that not all the statistical requirements can be fully met. The continuing lack of comprehensive, consistent cultural statistics at the Scotland and the UK levels limits what comparisons have been possible in this respect. Some comparisons have been drawn with other cities and with the national level, where data are available. The 2017 Edition of the Digest was again commissioned by Glasgow Life. Many organisations helped in its preparation by supplying data and responding to specific queries. To these and numerous individual members of their staffs deep thanks are expressed. A particular debt of gratitude is owed to the staffs of Glasgow Life, of Glasgow City Council’s Development and Regeneration Services Department, and of Glasgow Education Services. The help of Creative Scotland and of the Scottish Government is also gratefully acknowledged.

  • City As Lens: (Re)Imagining Youth in Glasgow and Hong Kong
    Article YOUNG City as Lens: (Re)Imagining 25(3) 1–17 © 2017 SAGE Publications and Youth in Glasgow and YOUNG Editorial Group Hong Kong SAGE Publications sagepub.in/home.nav DOI: 10.1177/1103308816669642 http://you.sagepub.com Alistair Fraser1 Susan Batchelor1 Leona Li Ngai Ling2 Lisa Whittaker3 Abstract In recent years, a paradox has emerged in the study of youth. On the one hand, in the context of the processes of globalization, neoliberalism and precarity, the pat- terning of leisure and work for young people is becoming increasingly convergent across time and space. On the other hand, it is clear that young people’s habits and dispositions remain deeply tied to local places, with global processes filtered and refracted through specific cultural contexts. Against this backdrop, drawing on an Economic and Social Research Council/Research Grants Council (ESRC/RGC)- funded study of contemporary youth in Glasgow and Hong Kong, this article seeks to explore the role of the city as a mediating lens between global forces and local impacts. Utilizing both historical and contemporary data, the article argues that despite parallels in the impact of global forces on the structure of everyday life and work, young people’s leisure habits remain rooted in the fates and fortunes of their respective cities.

Recent highlights have in- cluded the multimillion pound restoration of the Kibble Palace (2003-06), and also the completion of the restoration of the Main Range (2004), the restoration of the Long Pit (2011) and Pit 1 (2013), and the open- ing of the ‘Tea Room at the Botanics’ in 2012. The Kelvin Walkway, from Garrioch Drive to Belmont Street, is also contained within the Gardens’ foot- print. This provides an opportunity to give more attention to the day-to-day maintenance of these areas and provide visitors with extended walking routes and enhanced interpretation and labelling. In 2015 Land and Environmental Services will significantly improve plant labelling in all areas of the grounds in the main Gardens area. Improvements will also progress in underutilised or overgrown areas including the Rosaceae bed and the monocot border. Throughout the history of the Gardens – which dates back to 1817 – the emphasis has been on the plant collections and their use in education and, to a lesser extent, research.
