The Creative Industries [CI] have become an increasingly popular political and academic discussion topic in the world over the past three decades. In Turkey, it is a concept that has come to the fore recently and is the subject of relatively few academic publications. Although it is noteworthy that the studies on the subject in Turkey have started to enrich, especially in the last five years, it is quite optimistic to say that a solid discussion ground has been established. In the field of public policy, there are many efforts that explicitly or implicitly refer to the idea of CI. On the other hand, it seems that CI are not defined as a holistic and coordinated policy area. In the light of the presumption that the potential changes created by CI, especially its social effects, are handled without questioning, it can be stated that the relations of unique cultural values to sectors have become complicated. This study is a compilation made in order to lay the groundwork for the realization of original studies on the creative sectors, to add dimension to the CI discussion and to draw attention to policymaking on this issue.
