Although it is difficult to generalise across varying cultural and institutional contexts, the discipline of film studies, whatever forms it currently takes, is not alone in this regard. Many other humanities disciplines have been undergoing similar anxieties and insecurities, both in respect of their institutional status and their broader cultural relevance in a technological and economically rationalist age.engKriseFilmPhilosophieTheorieFilmwissenschaftcrisisfilmphilosophytheoryfilm studies79110.5117/NECSUS2012.1.SINN10.25969/mediarep/150412213-0217
