This landmark collection of essays considers the global legacy of
John Grierson, the father of British documentary. Featuring the
work of leading scholars from around the world, The Grierson Effect
explores the impact of Grierson's ideas about documentary and
educational film in a wide range of cultural and national contexts
- from Russia and Scandinavia, to Latin America, South Africa and
New Zealand. In reconsidering Grierson's international infl uence,
this major new study emphasises the material conditions of the
production and circulation of documentary cinema, foregrounds core
issues in documentary studies, and opens up expanded perspectives
on transnational cinema cultures and histories.
