A complex network of regulatory systems has arisen around the
provision of media in Europe. In this connection regulating content
is a focal point, as content is not only of economic but of vital
cultural importance. At Community level a wide variety of measures
have been taken to promote this branch of industry, especially in
fields in which new and innovative digital technologies are used to
enhance the market potential of content and creative products and
services. This important book focuses on regulatory interventions
in the content industry under Community law. It offers an in-depth
perspective on the functioning of the European legal framework for
the content industry, its guiding principles, and its explicit and
sometimes more fluid interface with policy areas falling largely
into Member States competences. In this aspect, the book can also
be read as an analysis of the impact of the cooperation between
European and Member State regulation when economic as well as
social, democratic, and cultural policy goals are at stake. Among
the areas of content regulation covered are: legal definitions
related to the content industry; branches of the content industry
broken down according to content category and distribution system;
the division of competences between the EC and the Member States in
cultural affairs; Community projects relevant to the content
industry; competition rules relating to distribution; market entry
and access regulation in the electronic communication markets;
specific regulation for such considerations as the protection of
minors, protection of health, protection of consumers, and
protection of personal rights; ensuring and safeguarding
functioning market structures in the content markets; and,
harmonization and coordination measures. The basis of this book was
a research project commissioned by the Austrian Federal Chancellery
in preparation for a seminar supported by the European Commission
in connection with Austria's Council Presidency in the first half
of 2006. As a systematic overview and analysis of the legal bases
of European content regulation, this book will be of extraordinary
value to practitioners, policymakers, officials, and academics in
the fields of media and communications law. Beyond that, the work
sheds a clear and defining light on an area that has an important
role to play in the future economic growth and the development of a
competitive business environment in Europe.
