I explore if the visions on the political levels meets practice that happens in the cultural perform of Lund residents. The purpose of this paper is to reflect the various cultural actor’s views on cultural life in Lund. Searching for a conclusion about if the vision meets reality.

My hypothesis is an existing discrepancy between vision and reality of the cultural life in Lund. I use methods as interviews, reading of cultural plans, literature and theories inspired by Adorno and Bourdeiu. (Less)
