This article utilizes Canal+’s film production and distribution subsidiary Studiocanal as a way to understand both companies’ impacts on French cinema since the formation of the subsidiary in the early 1990s. As such, the article is structured as a chronology and an analysis of the major films made in French and financed by Studiocanal in terms of their critical and popular reception. The article also examines the talent relationships underpinning this production and the trajectories of the various stars, writers, directors, and producers who worked on the films as well as the executives who oversaw them. Finally, the article analyzes the corporate rhetoric that was advanced by both Studiocanal and Canal+ over the years to position itself in the French and international markets. Synthesizing these branches of the analysis and noting certain cyclical patterns, the article argues that Studiocanal’s relationship to French cinema has been complex and changeable, at times limited in favor of pursuing the international market, at times devoting ample amounts of rhetoric and resources to pursuing success in its home market. Moreover, the article demonstrates that the company’s production activities have helped to mold a generation of French filmmakers and industry executives who have in turn gone on to influential careers. Looking forward, the article concludes by arguing that by virtue of its size and scale as a producer and distributor, Studiocanal will always be a significant player in French cinema.

It is argued that the maintenance of protectionist agricultural policies in developed countries may occur because of strategic interests. Two interests would be 1) guaranteeing some self-sufficiency and 2) supporting industrial, technological and commercial enterprises dependent on agricultural production. Having a strong agribusiness sector guarantees some security against potential instability in international production and distribution of food and generates relevant economic and technological resources. Argumenta-se que a manutenção das políticas agrícolas protecionistas em países desenvolvidos possa ocorrer por causa de interesses estratégicos. Dois interesses seriam 1) garantir alguma autossuficiência e 2) apoiar empreendimentos industriais, tecnológicos e comerciais dependentes da produção agrícola. Ter um forte setor de agronegócio confere alguma segurança contra a potencial instabilidade da produção e distribuição internacionais de alimentos e gera recursos econômicos e tecnológicos relevantes.

Abstract What is the role of Northeastern agricultural products in the US food system? This paper presents a typology that categorizes where agricultural production and distribution of a specific geographic area, in this case a multi-state region, fits within the US food system. The place of each food is defined based on its production volume, scope of distribution, market timing and agro-ecological niche. Six distinct roles that a region might play in supplying food are identified: (a) the region is a national production center, (b) the region is a seasonally important supplier, (c) regional production and distribution is the primary scale for supplying a food, (d) the product occupies an agro-ecological niche, (e) a product is a co-product of another industry in the region, and (f) the product is marketed explicitly for its geographic provenance as a local or regional product. Illustrative examples of each role are provided from the research of the Enhancing Food Security in the Northeast (EFSNE) regional food systems project. The examples draw from a variety of methodological approaches including regional self-reliance analysis, product case studies, supply chain models, and examination of spatial and temporal patterns in crop and livestock production and marketing. While presented in the context of the Northeast, the typology would likely be valuable for characterizing other regions of the country. We need such a typology to better understand and communicate the value of geographically dispersed agricultural production to creating a resilient food system, thereby improving our decisions of how to respond to future agricultural challenges

The article is devoted to one of the most current problems of the agricultural sector development – the problem of digitalization of agriculture and the related process of introducing information and communication technologies into the field of agricultural production and distribution. The digitalization of the agrarian sector is considered by the authors as a kind of “response” to the three main challenges of modern times – demographic, ecological and socio-economic. Based on the results of scientific research, the article describes the current realities and immediate prospects of the digital agricultural revolution taking place in the world.
