BEHIND THE SCREEN: INSIDE EUROPEAN PRODUCTION CULTURES
Ed. by Petr Szczepanik & Patrick Vonderau
New York: Palgrave MacMillan, 2014

"Behind the Screen explores the complex plays of power and imagination 
that shape the production of European film and television. Ranging 
widely, the authors provide revealing case examples of the diverse 
contexts in which screen media are conceived and produced. Shrewdly 
observant and conceptually sophisticated, these essays engage 
brilliantly with enduring debates about creative labor and cultural 
authority in modern societies."
- Michael Curtin, Mellichamp Professor of Global Media Studies, 
University of California, Santa Barbara, USA

"As cinema studies develops beyond obsessions with meaning and viewing, 
it is finally returning to the world of work - how are pictures made? 
This groundbreaking volume is a major contribution to a welcome tendency.
- Toby Miller, University of California, Riverside, USA
