Socio-economic impact of museums

Summary/Abstract: Museums have a great, though still not fully acknowledged nor always used, potential to create diverse socioeconomic benefi ts at diff erent spatial scales. Th e aim of the paper is to discuss important social and economic implications of museum activities which make it worthwhile to look at them not only as cost-generating enterprises and a ballast to public budget, or as institutions with an economic impact limited to supporting the tourism sector through providing the core of a tourism product. Departing from the consideration of museums as specifi c non-profit institutions producing a complex offer, the author points to a broad variety of museum stakeholders and defi nes various spheres of potential impact of museums.
