چکیده مقاله :
Creative cities generate high levels of innovation and economic growth, and also vibrant places to live. It is not certain that creative cities will show high levels of inclusiveness. Inclusiveness is a multi-dimensional concept and creativity is definitely established. When cities decide to be both as creative city and an inclusive city, various tensions may arise. Inclusive city branding and urban policy initiatives are a contentious issue We have chosen Dubai, Amsterdam and Toronto as case studies because all three have good situation in both. Toronto in religious and racism issues, Amsterdam in political initiatives related to age and ability to perform have shown weakness. Dubai performs poorly in political initiatives and geographical discrimination, issues of income and wealth in many ways there is proportionality between creativity, but there is also an inconsistency. Dubai has consistency aspects with local cultures and ignoring elements contrary to traditional norms such as classism, religionism, sexism and racism. In Amsterdam, there is little attention to economic growth, income generation, and support for the elderly and disabled people. In Toronto, there is less tension between the inclusive city aspect and the religionism, racism and discrimination based on income, wealth, and location.
