Isn't it an oversimplification to believe that the decrease in audiovisual investments is the only trigger for the new Australian quotas, without considering broader feedback loops?
The bottleneck here is not the decline in spending, but rather the pre-existing lack of an adequate regulatory regime for local creation.
These quotas are the result of a structural pressure for cultural sovereignty, a long-term goal rather than a simple reaction to an economic fluctuation.
For example, countries like France have established funding obligations for platforms well before an investment crisis, demonstrating that it is a systemic strategy.
This highlights that the measure is a response to a systemic vulnerability, and not a mere first-order effect of an economic statistic.
