VENUE: River Room, King’s College London, Strand Campus
Organised by Nobuko Kawashima (Doshisha University and Tokyo University, Japan), John Hill (Royal Holloway, University of London) and Paul McDonald (King’s College London) In response to both economic globalisation and technological developments, the past two decades have witnessed major changes in the film industries worldwide. Following on from the publication of a special issue of the International Journal of Cultural Policy (22: 5, 2016) on ‘Film Policy in a Globalised Cultural Economy’ (guest edited by John Hill and Nobuko Kawashima), this symposium will discuss the economic, technological and political shifts shaping the global film industry and consider their impact upon the formation of film policy in Asia, Europe and the US. With speakers presenting on a range of international contexts, the symposium aims to offer comparative perspectives on creative industries policies with a special focus on film as both an economic and cultural activity.
