MURSCHETZ, Paul Clemens; TEICHMANN, Roland  and  JAVED, Sameera. State Aid for Film and Audiovisual Services. A Synoptic Review of Key Principles and Governance Models in Europe and Abroad. Estudios del Desarrollo Social [online]. 2020, vol.8, n.1  Epub Apr 14, 2020. ISSN 2308-0132.

This study synoptically reviews scholarly and policy-related debates on key principles and governance frames of the public policy of state aid for film and audiovisual services, in Europe and abroad. It addresses some important challenges of policies of state aid to film, regarding the efficacy of funding models and principles. It also qualifies these principles against current global models of “best-practice.” In all, this study wishes to amplify the discussion on public subsidies for film from various perspectives. Given the different methods in theorizing, development, realization, monitoring, impact-measurement and evaluation of policy concepts, programs, institutions, instruments and impacts, this debate is not only of interest for academics, but also for global policy makers in the field.

Keywords : “best-practice” case study analysis; global models; government support; political economy of the media; public film policy; state aid for film; synoptic review.
