"The volume undoubtedly performs the important task of providing a precise mapping of digital cultural policy in parts of Europe that paves the way for further study, while also offering interesting and unique details." Emília Barna, International Journal of Cultural Policy
"This book provides a nuanced and timely account of how digital technologies are affecting cultural policy in different national and supranational contexts. A much-needed, detailed and stimulating contribution to a field in rapid transformation." Bjarki Valtysson, Department of Arts and Cultural Studies, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
"Based on research from key scholars working across the geographical and regulatory contexts of Europe, this book is sceptical of epochal claims about the helplessness of nation-states in a time of dominant platforms and persuasive about the potential for cultural policy to meet the challenges posed by digital technologies." David Wright, Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies, University of Warwick, UK
