The Conversation - An Online Journal - Blog with RSS Feeds

In its own words, "The Conversation is an online independent source of news and views, sourced from the academic and research community and delivered direct to the public."

This site provides peer reviewed discussion and articles.

I have included three RSS feeds from The Conversation as I believe these would provide relevant sources of information from which to answer the essay question. They would provide quick access points for the time poor student to springboard into searches. The RSS feeds cover the areas of art, sociology and economics as this is what the question is asking information about.  These feeds are titled: Arts and Culture, Politics and Society and Business and Economy. They appear on the right hand side here.

As a further example of what this blog offers, I have linked a relevant article from The Conversation titled, "Hail MONA! But what about the rest of Tasmanian Art?".
