*_Blurb_*
This book provides a comprehensive cultural and historical account of 
the key film policies put into place by the Spanish state between 1980 
and 2010 through a gendered lens, framing these policies within the 
wider context of European film legislation.
Departing from the belief that there is no such thing as an objective 
and value-neutral approach to policy analysis because our society is 
organised around gender, this volume builds upon Pierre Bourdieu’s 
theory of field to propose that film policies do not emerge in a vacuum 
because they respond to different demands from those agents involved in 
the field of the Spanish cinema. By so doing, it critically assesses how 
these policies have come into being, by whom, in response to what 
interests, how they have shaped the Spanish film industry, and how far 
and in what ways they have tackled gender inequality in the Spanish film 
industry.
