A fruitful prospect for such a revisionist endeavour can be found in the emergence of world cinema history that over the last decade has developed as a field in which the social function of cinema is being related to issues of representation while taking economic conditions of production and consumption into account.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Germanyhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/de/GeschichtsschreibungOntologieFilmgeschichteecocinemaworld cinemainterdisciplinarity50Artikel/Aufsatzurn:nbn:de:gbv:46-elib47284
