Más información sobre el libro

The book critically examines France's cultural exception in the digital age, questioning its relevance amidst the rise of platforms like Apple and Netflix. It explores whether the abundance of films renders cultural promotion policies unnecessary and analyzes the effectiveness of French film policy in fostering cultural diversity. Sarah Walkley argues for a more rigorous discussion surrounding the cultural exception, linking it to competition, freedom of expression, consumer choice, and national identity, while providing evidence of the success of French policies against US market dominance.
