影艺的政治:一九三0年代中期的中央电影检查委员会研究

The politics of filmmaking: An investigation of the Central Film Censorship Committee in the mid-1930s

Threatened by the thriving leftwing film industry, the Nationalist Party became more conservative. They set up the Central Film Censorship Committee as an important link in the system of film censorship, further tightening the control over film production. It was a substitute for the former Film Censorship Committee under the Ministries of Education and Interior. The committee achieved its original goals, but the result of its work did not fully conform to the party’s initial expectations.
