Television as the privileged medium for the dissemination of information and for mass entertainment has irreversibly altered the manner in which nations perceive themselves and each other. This volume explores the multiple and complex ways in which audiovisual developments in two important European states have impacted on the life styles and attitudes of the population at large and its governing elites.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tThis is the first study that is devoted to the highly significant roles played by France and Britain in the formulation of European audiovisual policy and that provides a truly comparative analysis of the contemporary audiovisual scene in the two countries. It consists of four complementary sections: an overview of the audiovisual landscapes in Britain and France; an analysis of television programming; an account of the new cable and satellite media, and an assessment of European audiovisual integration. Overall, this volume offers a constructive contribution to the continuing debate on national and European broadcasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \tList of Tables\u003cbr\u003e \tAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e \tEditorial Note\u003cbr\u003e \tList of Abbreviations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePART I: REGULATORY AND POLITICAL STRUCTURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1. \u003c\/strong\u003eTelevision and the State\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eRaymond Kuhn and James Stanyer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2. \u003c\/strong\u003eIndependent Regulatory Authorities\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eHervé Isar\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3. \u003c\/strong\u003eTwo Conflicting Notions of Audiovisual Liberalisation\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSerge Regourd\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Future of Public Broadcasting\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJean-Claude Sergeant\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePART II: PROGRAMMING STRUCTURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5. \u003c\/strong\u003eTwo Programming Models\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eRégine Chaniac\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6. \u003c\/strong\u003eCinema and Television: From Enmity to Interdependence\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eLucy Mazdon\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7. \u003c\/strong\u003eQuality, Culture and Education\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSusan Emanuel\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePART III: THE NEW MEDIA\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 8. \u003c\/strong\u003eSatellite Television\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003ePeter Goodwin\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 9. \u003c\/strong\u003eCable Television\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eJean-Claude Sergeant\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 10. \u003c\/strong\u003eBeyond Digital Television\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003ePatrick Vittet-Philippe\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePART IV: THE CHALLENGE OF EUROPE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 11. \u003c\/strong\u003eMultimedia Multinationals: Canal Plus and Reuters\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eMichael Palmer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 12. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Europeanisation of Programming\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAlex Taylor\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 13. \u003c\/strong\u003eBroadcasters' Involvement in Cinematographic Co-productions\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eAnne Jäckel\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 14. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe European Union Audiovisual Policies of the U.K. and France\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eRichard Collins\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \tSelect Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e \tNotes  on Contributors\u003cbr\u003e \tIndex\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Berghahn Books, Incorporated","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51041437024599,"sku":"9781571819468","price":89.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781571819468.jpg?v=1750950272","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/television-broadcasting-in-contemporary-france-and-britain-9781571819468","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
