{"product_id":"cinema-of-crisis-thomas-austin-9781474448505","title":"Cinema of Crisis: Film and Contemporary Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003eNow more than ever, the idea of Europe as grounded in a shared cultural heritage cannot be taken for granted. For all its diversity, complexity and internal tensions, Europe remains a powerful economic and political superstate. But it is one in crisis, where the postwar social democratic consensus has collapsed, the failings of neoliberalism have led to widespread austerity, and extremism, xenophobia and racism are on the rise. \u003cbr\u003eThis collection of original essays considers filmmakers' engagements with pressing issues of the moment. Taking a long view of the crisis and considering geopolitical changes that took place towards the end of the 20th century, this book examines European cinema's response to the economic, political and social crises that afflict Europe in the present.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Austin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147444850X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474448505\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/22\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2021","brand":"Thomas Austin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088353177855,"sku":"9781474448505","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bef5fdfd-73ba-4644-95e4-38fd8d1764e4.jpg?v=1769104366","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cinema-of-crisis-thomas-austin-9781474448505","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
