The rise of statistics has paralleled an extension of government control over
the arts and the tendency to value culture for its impact rather than its
intrinsic value. Much data produced is methodologically flawed and says more
about policy intentions than about actual impact. Until the collection and
analysis of data is carried out more objectively and evidence gathered used
more constructively, it could be argued that collecting has been a relatively
spurious exercise.
