| Abstract: | The French media are protected by a wide range of legislative and regulatory measures. The intricacies of French media policy--determined by objectives often not imminent to media--are reflected in the development of the French cable systems. Planned as a secondary utilization market for film and television productions increasing the demand for new French works, the development of French cable systems has been ailing economically for a long time. This study sets out to analyze the driving forces of media policy as to cable systems and their economic effects, leading to a long-term evaluation of the efficiency of French cable policy. |
