Conclusion -- Appendix -- Index. 330 $aThis is the first book to examine whether France?s ongoing defence of the cultural exception as a means to maintain cultural policies and defend cultural diversity is justifiable in the digital age. It questions whether the arrival of new players such as Apple and Netflix makes defence impossible, and whether an explosion in the number of films available makes policies for cultural promotion increasingly unnecessary. The book takes a critical look at French film policy to establish whether it promotes cultural diversity across cinema and video on demand and the implications for ongoing defence of the cultural exception. Sarah Walkley ultimately makes the case for a more disciplined approach to discussion of the cultural exception and cultural diversity in France supporting ideological arguments about competition, freedom of expression, consumer choice and national identity with concrete evidence of the success of French policies in countering US film market dominance. 410 0$aNew Directions in Cultural Policy Research,$x2730-924X 606 $aCultural policy 606 $aMass media?Political aspects 606 $aMotion pictures?European influences 606 $aMotion pictures 606 $aCultural Policy and Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411120 606 $aMedia Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/412070 606 $aEuropean Cinema and TV$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413060 606 $aFilm/TV Industry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/413170 615 0$aCultural policy. 615 0$aMass media?Political aspects. 615 0$aMotion pictures?European influences. 615 0$aMotion pictures. 615 14$aCultural Policy and Politics. 615 24$aMedia Policy. 615 24$aEuropean Cinema and TV. 615 24$aFilm/TV Industry. 676 $a305.8 700 $aWalkley$b Sarah$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0963811 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300026903321 996 $aCultural Diversity in the French Film Industry$92185744 997 $aUNINA
