The potential of films to educate has been crucial for the
development of cinema intended to influence culture, and is as
important as conceptions of film as a form of art, science,
industry, or entertainment. Using the concept of
institutionalization as a heuristic for generating new approaches
to the history of educational cinema, contributors to this volume
study the co-evolving discourses, cultural practices, technical
standards, and institutional frameworks that transformed
educational cinema from a convincing idea into an enduring genre.
The Institutionalization of Educational Cinema examines the methods
of production, distribution, and exhibition established for the use
of educational films within institutions-such as schools,
libraries, and industrial settings in various national and
international contexts and takes a close look at the networks of
organizations, individuals, and government agencies that were
created as a result of these films' circulation. Through case
studies of educational cinemas in different North American and
European countries that explore various modes of
institutionalization of educational film, this book highlights the
wide range of vested interests that framed the birth of educational
and nontheatrical cinema.
