Who bears the cost when asserting a direct link between local content regulations and institutional research without nuance?
For the small player, such generalizations mask the biases inherent in research, which often prioritizes what is visible and funded by established powers.
A regulation protecting a minority language or an indigenous art form will rarely have the same impact on the CEIM as a pan-European directive on streaming.
The link is conditional, depending on political visibility and available resources, and not an automatic consequence.
Thinking that each regulation is automatically subject to study is to ignore the unequal distribution of academic interest and funding.
