In this era of austerity, the value of the arts has been a topic of heated debate in Greece, where the country's economic troubles have led to drastic cuts in public funding and much contention over the significance of cultural institutions and government-funded arts initiatives. At issue in these debates are larger questions regarding the very notions of publicness, hierarchies of value, and functions of the state that structure collective life. Beginning with the Thessaloniki International Film Festival, \u003ci\u003eThe Public Life of Cinema \u003c\/i\u003etracks this turbulence as it unfolded in the Greek film world in the early years of the crisis. Investigating the different forms of citizenship and collectivity being negotiated in cinema's social spaces, this book considers how the arts and cultural production may illuminate the changing conditions of, and possibilities for, public and collective life in the neoliberal era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Toby Lee\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520379012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520379015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/03\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.90d","brand":"Toby Lee","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43983317926143,"sku":"9780520379015","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_afdfb03d-ea44-4482-aedb-6ce52db91077.jpg?v=1683265929","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-public-life-of-cinema-toby-lee-9780520379015","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
