Abstract

The American dominance in the European film industry has been common for many years. As a response, Europeans have implemented various protectionist measures. By analysing these measures from an economic point of view it is shown that there is no case for government intervention in the audiovisual industry. On the contrary, national and regional subsidisation as well as national quotas are one of the main reasons for the low competitiveness of the European film industry. The direction to go is therefore to remove these protectionist instruments. Thereby the European film industry might become more competitive, although Americans will continue to dominate the European film market. However, this is rather positive, since both consumers and tax payers benefit from a deregulated European film market.
