Abstract:
This research review article made an attempt to review such issues pertaining to handicraft sector. It highlight/covers following aspects in detail: ergonomics interventions in handicraft industries, occupational risk factor, and musculoskeletal disorders. The literatures over a decade reported that ergonomics concepts are more applied in large-scale industries like steel plant, power plant, manufacturing plants, automotive sectors etc. rather than small-scale industries like handicraft. However, applying ergonomics concepts/principles in such industries would definitely lead to increase in the work-system-worker productivity by improvement in tools, methods, work-environment, minimizing injuries and disorders. Based on literature studies recommendations are made that significant lead to improvement in productivity of such industries.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the marketing and branding behaviours of a sample of microbusinesses that operate in Scotland’s diverse craft sector by examining brand narratives they create. Context of the sector is first given and demonstrates that this particular topic has received little specific attention in academic literature even though it has been recommended (Fillis 2003a; Fillis 2003b). Such an investigation also offers implications for SME marketing/ entrepreneurship in general, the creative industries in particular and craft brands’ contribution to the overall place branding of Scotland. An empirical methodology is proposed which takes a narrative phenomenological approach, generating narrative texts from depth interviews with creative producers which is subjected to a Grounded Theory approach and narrative analysis in view of craft producer typologies (Fillis 1999; Fillis 2010). The stories of makers are used to generate meaning and outputs to contribute to theory, practice and recommendations for policy. Care is taken to ensure that the testimony of participants is co-created and not entirely the result of the researcher’s interpretation even though this study is interpretive in nature (Rae & Carswell 2000; McAdams 2008; MacLean et al. 2011). Similar to other entrepreneurs or producers in the creative industries, the craft worker in the current era is typified as an individual sole trader who operates in a wider culture, society and economy of increasing complexity and competition (Fraser 2013). This thesis selects those owner/ managers whose businesses rely upon craft practice and are operating in Scotland as its focus, but aims its findings at a wider reach to establish themes for future research to understand how its participants build value into their market offerings by creating personal narratives within larger narratives of craft sector and creative industries discourse. A range of participants from new starts to well-established craft practitioners is featured in the text in order to give depth and breadth to the understanding of current practice in a diverse sector which increasingly interacts with other creative industry sectors (Yair & Schwarz 2011). This thesis posits that creative producers build value through their unique ‘auratic’ persona through their personal brand narrative. This is what differentiates their work and outputs from large corporatized mass-manufacturing systems. The products of individuals’ hand skill may be categorised and classified in many ways – from fine contemporary craft to the vernacular, the utile and that which pays homage to others’ designs. What remains constant, however, is that it emanates from personal identity and the identity of the maker mixing self with story (Leslie 1998). The thesis contributes to the gap in academic marketing literature on microenterprise brand development using the topics of personal narrative, business development, product development, marketing competency/ orientation, and technology use in production and marketing. Additional emergent themes of Microenterprise Social Responsibility, the role of life-work balance of makers parenthood which further ideas of career management in the creative industries are also revealed in the course of this research (see also Summerton 1990; Burroughs 2002; Neilson & Rossiter 2008; McDowell & Christopherson 2009; Banks & Hesmondhalgh 2009). Methodologically, this thesis is hybrid but crucially uses the equipment of story and narrative analysis to offer both insights into practice for the academy and a method that practitioners can use to further marketing development and their brand identity. Through the careful gathering and presentation of various stories – of biography, making and marketing, this thesis presents a current view of craft as created, communicated and exchanged by those working in the field in Scotland today. These case stories act as both informative examples that demonstrate how individual producers create value in their work. The findings are consistent with - but also develop - a maker typology offered by Fillis (1999; 2010) and Burns et al. (2012) thus contributing a methodological and conceptual approach and framework to understand the marketing and branding behaviours of Scottish craft microenterprises (McAuley 1999; Creative and Cultural Skills 2009) but which may also be applied to other types of microenterprise.

This study reviews factors which have been found to affect the operation of Aboriginal enterprises in Australia and discuss these in relation to three empirical case studies of Aboriginal community enterprises located at Nguiu, Bathurst Island. In order to provide a theoretical framework within which valid questions concerning Aboriginal management might be formulated, what is generally known regarding the management and organisational development of Aboriginal enterprises was first discussed. Factors to do with historical and contemporary operations, Aboriginal attributes and the high degree of non-Aboriginal control over Aboriginal organisations were seen to be of major importance in understanding the problems for Aboriginal management and organisational development Importantly, the integrated social and economic life in communities appears to have a major impact on the success or failure of enterprise operations.

Abstract:
Los productos artesanos pasaron de circular en mercados locales populares a llamar la atención de etnólogos y folcloristas, constituirse en objeto de interés turístico y conformar actualmente una importante industria creativa que los ha llevado a los mercados nacionales e internacionales. En este último giro han coadyuvado el desarrollo de la categoría de patrimonio cultural inmaterial y la inclusión en ella de la llamada artesanía. Esta investigación se centra en las implicaciones que tienen las políticas transnacionales del turismo y el patrimonio para los sectores artesanales en espacios locales. Se indaga por la manera en que el uso turístico de las artesanías incide en su patrimonialización y cómo afecta esta relación a la dinámica artesanal de las localidades estudiadas, con especial atención a las estrategias de los artesanos para adaptarse y legitimarse en estos nuevos escenarios. Implica identificar el papel que juegan los distintos agentes sociales en dichos procesos; analizar la producción y negociación de narrativas de autenticidad; y reflexionar acerca de los significados que adquiere la artesanía en contextos de patrimonialización y desarrollo turístico. El estudio empírico se realizó en Colombia, país cuya experiencia en el desarrollo del sector artesanal ha resultado de gran interés a nivel internacional por lograr una consolidación de la artesanía como industria creativa, con base en asociaciones con otros sectores como el diseño industrial, diseño de modas y turismo. Se centra la atención en el núcleo turístico del departamento de Santander, específicamente en los casos de Barichara y Curití, municipios que se vienen consolidando como pueblos artesanos en el mapa multicultural y turístico nacional. Se concluye que la patrimonialización de la artesanía ha estado asociada a un proyecto económico local impulsado por agentes supra-locales en el que el turismo tiene una importancia creciente como vector que produce y reproduce valor patrimonial. Éste último, al recaer sobre oficios, materias primas y técnicas, y no sobre un canon de objetos, ha permitido una importante diversificación de la producción estimulada por la competencia en un mercado favorable a las artesanías que logran transmitir una conciliación entre tradición e innovación. Los artesanos se adaptan al nuevo contexto apropiando y reconfigurando criterios relevantes en él como los de identidad, calidad, innovación o creatividad, e implementando cambios en sus formas de producción y productos. Esta dinámica de transformación artesanal, que no ha estado exenta de conflictos intestinos, ha promovido la renovación de la artesanía como espacio productivo y simbólico a la vez, ya que su importancia en la nueva econ omía la transforma en un campo privilegiado para dirimir la identidad local.<br>Artisanal products went from circulating in popular local markets, to attracting the attention of ethnologists, folklorists and, then, tourists, to now shape an important creative industry that has taken them to national and international markets. The development of the category of intangible cultural heritage and the inclusion on it of the so-called crafts have contributed in this last turn. This research focuses on the implications of transnational heritage and tourism policies on local artisan sectors. The way in which tourist use of handicrafts affects their patrimonialization and how this relationship influence handicraft dynamics of localities are estudied, with special attention to the artisans strategies to adapt and legitimize themselves in these new scenarios. The role of different social agents in these processes, the negotiation of authenticity narratives and emergent meanings of crafts in contexts of heritage and tourism development, are also analyzed. Empirical study took place in Colombia, country that has gained international recognition for developing crafts as a creative industry based on partnerships with other sectors such as industrial design, fashion design and tourism. Turistic Nucleus of Santander region is focalized, specifically the cases of Barichara and Curití, localities that have been consolidating as artisan towns on the national multicultural and tourist map. It is concluded that patrimonialization of crafts has been associated with a local economic project promoted by supra-local agents in which tourism is an increasingly relevant vector that produces and reproduces heritage value. The latter, to the extent that have focused on trades, raw materials and techniques, have allowed an important heterogeneization of production stimulated by competition in a market favorable to handicrafts that shows a conciliation between tradition and innovation. Artisans adapt to this new context by appropriating and reconfiguring relevant criteria such as identity, quality, innovation or creativity, and introducing changes in their production process and products. This dynamic of transformation, which has not been exempt from internal conflicts, has promoted the renewal of crafts as a productive and symbolic space at the same time, since its importance in the new economy transforms it into a privileged field to resolve local identity.

Abstract:
Nigerian textile and clothing industries is face with crisis under the pressure of influx of smuggled second-hand clothing and cheap and poor quality of Chinese textiles. The situation has resulted to closure of many textile industries and massive unemployment with inability of the few existing industries to compete favourably base on price. The study was carried out in Abeokuta among tie-dye/batik practitioners and consumers of tie-dye/batik products with the aim to examine the challenges facing the resist dyeing industries. The research method is divided into three: Theoretical- this involves using secondary data from books, journal, newspaper, and the web to gather background information; Statistical- this involves the use of questionnaire to gather primary data. The data collected was analysed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Scientist); and Visual- this entails the use of images to establish facts and make judgement on the basis of the facts discovered. The findings revealed that the challenges facing the practitioners are multi-facet ranging from poor educational status, lack of adequate training/re-training programmes, poor financial status, low customers’ patronage, poor management and marketing skill, lack of adequate and functional social amenities, low purchasing power of consumers who often buy on credit and pay on instalment (some don’t bother to pay their debt), increased competition from smugglers of second-hand clothing and imported Chinese textiles, poor/ no knowledge of information technology, low access to international/ overseas markets and minimal willingness to take risk. Consumers of tie-dye/batik are pertinent to the study. The findings from the consumers shows that about half of the consumers interviewed cannot afford to buy clothes monthly while slightly more than half buy clothes on credit and pay on instalment. The industry has being affected with change in taste of consumers, consequently one third of the consumers do not patronise tie-dye/batik fabrics. Consumers pointed out that tie-dye/batik fabrics are not colourfast and the designs are too common (frequently seen). Consumers also complained of poor customers services of the practitioners. Base on the findings, the study proposes holistic approach to the challenges. A sustainable model of five major pillars (Continuous innovation, Customer Relationship Management, Government Policy Support, Networking and Practitioners Personal Capacity Development) is proposed. Absence of any of the pillar will result to sustainability collapse of tie-dye/batik industry. Other model being proposed include establishment of an Export Centre with an effective and efficient two way communication model; EVIPI an acronym of English words to stimulate innovative entrepreneurial drive in niche marketing, a model for internal secondhand clothing to revisit the pass me down clothing culture among the Yoruba and a networking model to complement each other for development.

Abstract:
This essay gives an overview of the changing nature of work in the nineteenth century. It focuses on the organisation of work and the persistence of custom alongside the growing influence of contracts, political economy, and state regulation. It explores attitudes to work and the moral values attached to earning a living. It shows that whilst some things changed beyond all expectation, illustrated most obviously in the rise of the factory, others changed very little at all. By the end of the period, a modernised workforce in new bureaucracies and industries, managed by professionals attuned to market forces but regulated by the state, existed alongside handicraft producers and penny capitalists, organising work through middle-men subcontracting to networks of producers with rhythms shaped by seasonal demand, family dynamics, and consumer habits.

Abstract:
This chapter traces the development of Kenya’s tourism and handicraft industries from their roots in 20th century British colonialism to provide some of the broader history of Kenya’s tourism and co-operative development, their emergence in Mombasa, and their relationships with local governments. I draw on archival as well as ethnographic data collected just before the 2002 demolition of Mombasa’s roadside kiosks, which form the starting point for the larger longitudinal study. I focus on the array of experiences of Mombasa’s roadside traders of diverse backgrounds as they struggle with the privatization and segregation of urban residential and commercial space both before and after the demolitions. The economy was radically altered as the roadsides were “cleaned” and a new wave of economic formalization characterized the relationship between small-scale businesspeople and the state. For many entrepreneurs invested in the global crafts trade, this was the final straw that pushed them toward new technologies, jumping scales into global markets, and investing in export and wholesale businesses that were not spatially dependent upon a connection to the city center.

Abstract:
In 1900, the majority of India’s industrial workers were in industries that did not use either machinery or large factories. This chapter describes their experience. Traditional handicrafts formed a large part of this set. According to a popular interpretation, the handicrafts declined owing to competition from machine-made goods imported from Britain. Recent scholarship questioned and revised that view to suggest that the effect was more differentiated because small-scale industry was quite diverse within. The chapter builds on that reinterpretation.

Abstract:
In the Creative Industries (CI), Additive Manufacturing is one of the new areas of investigation and without doubt has the potential for disruptive innovation capable to transform the traditional manufacturing paradigm and increase the largely accepted and required shift towards the design, conceptualisation, and adoption of sustainable Additive Manufacturing (AM) process. The objective of this study is to conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to identify and describe different publications that can contribute to additive manufacturing in the creative industry’s knowledge base. The purpose is to identify the publication trends that largely explain the adoption the additive manufacturing in the manufacturing process of handicraft industry product literature through the description of the main discourse rising newly in the field. This research contributes to filling the gap in terms of SLR on the importance of CI and AM for industrial development conducted by bibliometric analysis. The results of this systematic review revealed that: notwithstanding the increasing concern about the growth of the CI, issues related to product innovation and technological development of the industries are understudied; there is promising literature for the development of contextual creative industry practice which researchers are dedicating their works. However, a further focus of research on the fashion, textile, architecture, sculpture, and archeological sites has emerged in the more specialised literature.

Abstract:
Huayao cross-stitch is a traditional handicraft with distinctive regional characteristics in China. Aesthetically appealing with rich cultural implications, Huayao cross-stitch has been listed in the first national list of intangible cultural heritage of China since 2006. With the rapid development of cultural consumption globally, the innovative design and industrial transformation potential have made traditional handicrafts highly-valued resources, and the analysis of cultural representation and multi-value of traditional handicrafts is the basis of cultural reuse. From the perspective of cultural ecology, the current study aims to summarize the spatial organization mode of Huayao cross-stitch patterns and conduct a deep analysis of the concepts and beliefs represented in Huayao cross-stitch by examining 70 samples of cross-stitch skirt pieces collected from the composition and semantics of patterns. The study then analyzes the basis of multi-value of the Huayao cross-stitch from both aesthetic and cultural dimensions, providing a research basis for the innovation and regeneration of Huayao’s cross-stitch, through which its value can be seen in contemporary times as well as in the future.

Abstract:
In discussions of craft since the digital revolution in architecture of the past twenty years it is common for an author to situate their position relative to the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Scholars have repeatedly and rightly noticed striking parallels between reactions in design thinking to the industrial revolution and reactions to the digital revolution in architecture. Proponents of various digital schools invoke the likes of William Morris and John Ruskin as historical theoretical foils to visions of craft in the digital age. There is, however, a tendency to overlook or dismiss as naïve the socio-political ambitions that underwrite the better-known aesthetic styles of various craft movements. Revisiting the political economy of movements like the Arts and Crafts and its allies prompts questions about various contemporary formulations of digital craft. Reinterpreting, for example, Ruskin’s prescient critiques of the technological revolution of his time still suggest social, political, and economic implications for handicraft in our own digital age. To define these questions and potentials, this paper will review the historical moral imperative of craft; survey representative attitudes towards craft in several prominent digital schools of thought; and suggest alternative ways of engaging the socio-political possibilities of digital handicraft through architectural drawing with digital tablet computers, such as the iPad.

Abstract:
Today, the environment is threatened by different sources, and the environmental impact of plastic trash has become increasingly critical day by day, with the use of multi-layered plastic presenting particular difficulties because of its slow breakdown and enduring nature. Therefore, the study aims to predesign some useful art, lifestyle, and industrial products made from upcycled materials and address the problem of multi-layered plastic trash in an inventive way.For this study, a detailed survey was conducted among 106 randomly selected people aged 18 to 55 years. A comprehensive questionnaire was developed and performed to determine their opinion about the use of plastics, their impact on the environment, and sustainable products. They may buy or use any product made of upcycled plastics, and the answers to these questions helped to shape the environmental carelessness of multi-layered plastic. Further information about the possible market for these products was obtained from end-sellers. To collect the multi-layered plastic packets like Maggie, chips, biscuits, etc., we appointed a few people and took the help of a small restaurant or food stall to store the packets. By involving local communities, this collection technique attempts to lessen the negative effects of multi-layered plastic on the environment. Finally, based on user feedback and market research, we try to develop a few products after following the design process. After the analysis of the questionnaire, it was found that most users were aware of the side effects of multi-layered plastics and their adverse effects on the ecosystem. From the research, one interesting point came out: people are interested in buying products made of recycled plastic. So after brainstorming and based on the users and market trends, developing useful products by using design-thinking ideas was the focus of the research. Plastic packets that were collected were turned into yarn and weaved into textiles to make a variety of items, including laptop bags, pouches, totes, book covers, and bags. Through the development of handicraft skills, this method not only promoted employment prospects but also addressed environmental issues. According to the study's findings, implementing such a strategy can successfully increase public knowledge of inventive plastic recycling and help to lower environmental pollution. Additionally, the approach offers a viable way to create jobs while encouraging the incorporation of environmentally beneficial behaviors into daily life. This study promotes a change in approach towards creative, neighborhood-focused solutions to address the expanding issue of plastic trash.Finally, we can conclude that awareness related to multi-layered plastics is required and simultaneously increases the utilization of the used plastics for art, lifestyle products, and any industrial products that not only give an alternative to the users but also bring new sources of employment.
