This volume offers an up-to-date analysis of film and television co-production in Europe. It brings together the voices of policy professionals, industry practitioners and media industry scholars to trace the contours of a complex practice that is of increasing significance in the global media landscape. Analysis of the latest production statistics sits alongside interviews with producers and the critical evaluation of public film policies.  The volume incorporates contributions from representatives of major public institutions--Eurimages, the European Audiovisual Observatory and the European Commission--and private production companies including the pan-European Zentropa Group. Policy issues are elucidated through case studies including the Oscar-winning feature film Ida, the BAFTA-winning I am not a Witch and the Danish television serial Ride Upon the Storm. Scholarly articles span co-development, co-distribution and regional cinemas as well as emerging policy challenges such as the digital single market. The combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches, and the juxtaposition of industry and scholarly voices, provides a unique perspective on European co-production that is information-rich, complex and stimulating, making this volume a valuable companion for students, scholars, and industry professionals.

Copyright is territorial, but the same cannot be said of the internet, whose borderless nature has changed the way we consume copyright-protected material. Nevertheless, territorial segmentation of online content remains a reality in the 28 member states of the European Union. Licensing and access practices do not reflect this digital reality, in which end-users demand ubiquitous access to content. For this reason, the territorial nature of copyright and traditional business models based on national exploitation prevent the completion of the Digital Single Market. Sebastian Felix Schwemer provides a unique analysis of the dynamic licensing and access arrangements for audiovisual works and music and shows how they are being addressed by sector regulation and competition law in the Digital Single Market. His analysis, which includes case law of the Court of Justice, the Commission's competition proceedings, and various legislative tools, reveals the overlapping nature of legislative and non-legislative regulatory solutions.

Depuis leur création, la radio et la télévision de service public ont connu de nombreux changements consécutifs aux innovations technologiques, aux réorientations politiques ou réglementaires, à l’évolution des conditions économiques et à l’émergence de nouvelles pratiques socioculturelles. Plus récemment, ces médias, à l’instar de l’ensemble des industries médiatiques et culturelles, ont été rudement secoués par la rapide expansion des réseaux numériques et par l’apparition des appareils permettant cette dernière. La « révolution du numérique » entraîne en effet d’énormes défis pour les gens œuvrant dans toutes les sphères de la production et de la diffusion culturelles et médiatiques, mais aussi pour les usagers des médias. La Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)/ Société Radio-Canada (SRC), la British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) et France Télévisions (FTV) bougent devant ces importantes mutations. Elles réagissent, autant que leurs ressources humaines et financières le permettent, en adoptant – sous pression extérieure ou de leur propre initiative – des stratégies pour relever les considérables défis imposés par leur environnement changeant.
