Book Synopsis Media and Democracy in Africa by : Michael Leslie
Download or read book Media and Democracy in Africa written by Michael Leslie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent discussion of democratization in Africa has focused primarily on the reform of formal state institutions: the public service, the judiciary, and the legislature. Similarly, both scholars and activists have shown interest in how associational life-and with it a civil society-might be enhanced in the countries of the African continent. Much less concern, however, has been directed to the communications media, although they form a vital part of this process. Media and Democracy in Africa provides the first comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the role of the media in political change in sub-Saharan Africa. The central argument of the volume is that while the media may still be relatively weak compared to their positions in liberal democracies, they have come to play a much more important role than ever before since independence. Although they have not yet demonstrated sufficient effectiveness as public watchdogs and agenda setters, they have succeeded in creating new communicative spaces for people who have previously been intimidated or silent. Building on this the contributors argue that a different conceptualization of democratization than the mainstream currently uses may be necessary to capture the process in Africa where it is characterized by contestation rather than consolidation. This volume shows that the media scene in Africa is diverse. It stretches from the well-developed and technologically advanced situation in South Africa to the still fledgling media operations that are typical in sub-Saharan Africa. In these countries, print media as well as television and radio are just beginning to take their place in society and do so using simple and often outdated technology. The volume also examines how these growing outlets are supplemented by informal media, the so-called radio trottoir, or rumor mill whereby the autocratic and bureaucratic direction of public affairs are subject to private speculation and analysis. Media and Democracy in Africa is organized to provide a historical perspective on the evolution of the African media, placing the present in the context of the past, including both colonial and post-colonial experiences. It will be of interest to Africa area specialists, students of media and communications, political scientists and sociologists.

Download or read book Media, Communication and the Struggle for Democratic Change written by Katrin Voltmer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the role of media and communication in processes of democratization in different political and cultural contexts. Struggles for democratic change are periods of intense contest over the transformation of citizenship and the reconfiguration of political power. These democratization conflicts are played out within an increasingly complex media ecology where traditional modes of communication merge with new digital networks, thus bringing about multiple platforms for journalists and political actors to promote and contest competing definitions of reality. The volume draws on extensive case study research in South Africa, Kenya, Egypt and Serbia to highlight the ambivalent role of the media as force for democratic change, citizen empowerment, and accountability, as well as driver of polarization, radicalization and manipulation.

Book Synopsis Topic Issues in Mass Communication in African Settings by : Paul Aondover Igbashangev

This book was released on 2023-09-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book exhaustively laid bare the challenges confronting communication policy formulation in Nigeria. From what is on the ground, Nigeria has a communication policy that is ineffective and disconnected from the stakeholders. As a way out of the quagmire, the book recommended that Nigeria as a country should have a policy that could aid the free flow of communication from rural to urban and vice versa. The book also discussed generally how media report ethno-religious conflicts knowing fully of the fact that conflict anywhere is one of the elements that attract media attention due to the dictum that says 'it sells when it bleeds. The book essentially highlighted the areas where social media played significant roles in the advancement of democracy and good governance in Nigeria. The advancement of democracy and good governance in Nigeria has demonstrated the efficacy of social media use in electioneering campaigns, virtual monitoring of election conduct across various polling units, and the dissemination of post-election results, as well as serving as a medium for whistleblowing for corruption and bribery by government officials. It suggested among others that attempts must be made to get authors of some serious allegations against political office holders to substantiate them at an open forum where all the service providers, political office holders, and authors of materials on social media will be present to face each other and trash out issues bothering on good governance in Nigeria.
