Screen industries in East-Central Europe – Cultural policies and political culture (22-25 November 2012, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic)

Abstract

Credit must be given to the academics that created NECS less than a decade ago. After the organization’s first conference in Vienna in 2007 European film scholars finally had an annual venue where new acquaintances could be made and networks cultivated. This process has even facilitated new annual events, most often on a specific subject compared to the more wide-ranging NECS.
