Press Reviews:
"Petar Mitric leverages years of desk and field research to provide an original contribution to the understanding of European international co-productions in the era of globalization and platformization. In his book, Mitric wisely relates three key stakeholders (policymakers, practitioners, and the audience) in order to analyze tensions and trends that have characterized co-productions over time. By combining traditional and innovative research tools applied to case studies with an evident personal passion for the topic, that emerges from a very pleasant writing style, Mitric's volume is set to become an essential reference in the emerging field of European media industry studies." (Associate Professor Marco Cucco, University of Bologna, Italy)
