  • Coronavirus and the European Film Industry
    BRIEFING Coronavirus and the European film industry SUMMARY With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, which has caused the shutdown of some 70 000 cinemas in China, nearly 2 500 in the US and over 9 000 in the EU, the joy sparked by the success of the film industry in 2019 has quickly given way to anxiety. Shootings, premieres, spring festivals and entertainment events have faced near-total cancellation or postponement due to the pandemic, thus inflicting an estimated loss of US$5 billion on the global box office; this amount could skyrocket to between US$15 billion and US$17 billion, if cinemas do not reopen by the end of May 2020. The EU film sector is essentially made up of small companies employing creative and technical freelancers, which makes it particularly vulnerable to the pandemic. The domino effect of the lockdown has triggered the immediate freeze of hundreds of projects in the shooting phase, disrupted cash flows and pushed production companies to the brink of bankruptcy. To limit and/or mitigate the economic damage caused by coronavirus, governments and national film and audiovisual funds across the EU have been quick in setting up both general blanket measures (such as solidarity funds and short-term unemployment schemes) and/or specific industry-related funds and grants (helping arthouse cinema and providing financial relief to producers and distributors). For its part, the EU has acted promptly to limit the spread of the virus and help EU countries to withstand its social and economic impact. In addition to the Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative (CRII) and the CRII+, both approved by the European Parliament and the Council in record time, the Commission has set up a Temporary Framework allowing EU countries to derogate from State aid rules, and proposed a European instrument for temporary support (SURE) to help protect jobs and workers affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

  • New Caledonia's Independence Referendum
    New Caledonia’s independence referendum: Local and regional Denise Fisher May 2019 implications NEW CALEDONIA’S INDEPENDENCE REFERENDUM: LOCAL AND REGIONAL IMPLICATIONS The Lowy Institute is an independent policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia — economic, political and strategic — and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high-quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Analyses are short papers analysing recent international trends and events and their policy implications. The views expressed in this paper are entirely the author’s own and not those of the Lowy Institute. NEW CALEDONIA’S INDEPENDENCE REFERENDUM: LOCAL AND REGIONAL IMPLICATIONS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY After a long history of difference, including civil war, over independence, New Caledonia’s 4 November 2018 referendum began a self-determination process, but ended 30 years of stability under peace accords. Persistent ethnic division over independence revealed by this first vote may well be deepened by May 2019 local elections. Two further referendums are possible, with discussion about future governance, by 2022, amid ongoing social unease. Bitter areas of difference, which had been set aside for decades, will remain front and centre while the referendum process continues. Key strategic interests are at stake for France, whose Pacific territories add ballast to its global leadership status.

An atypical ‘honeymoon’ election? Contextual and strategic opportunities in the 2017 French legislative elections Jocelyn Evans (University of Leeds) [email protected] Gilles Ivaldi (Université de Nice-Sophia Antipolis) [email protected] This is the authors’ version (pre-print) Abstract This paper places the 2017 French legislative elections in the broader context of confirMatory legislative elections in France. It argues that EmManuel Macron’s victory, whilst rooted in the specific political opportunity structure of the 2017 elections, is also a by-product of the broader institutional logic of ‘honeyMoon’ legislative races. We look first at key aspects relating to the confirMatory status of post-presidential elections in France, and ask to what extent the 2017 elections fit this Model.
