This 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.
