      title = {Film professionals in Nazi-occupied Europe : mediation  between the national-socialist cultural "New Order" and  local structures /},
      abstract = {This book analyses the film industries and cinema cultures  of Nazi-occupied countries (1939-1945) from the point of  view of individuals: local captains of industry, cinema  managers, those working for film studios and officials  authorized to navigate film policy. The book considers  these people from a historical perspective, taking into  account their career before the occupation and, where  relevant, pays attention to their post-war lives. The  perspectives of these historical agents contributes to an  understanding of how top-down orders and haphazard signals  from the occupying administration were moulded, adjusted  and distorted in the process of their translation and  implementation. This edited collection offers a more  dynamic and less deterministic approach to research on the  international expansion of Third-Reich cinema in World War  Two; an approach that strives to balance the role of  individual agency with the structural determinants. The  case studies presented in this book cover the territories  of Belgium, Czechoslovakia, France, the Netherlands,  Norway, Poland and the Soviet Union.
