Download or read book Same and Other written by Mai Palmberg and published by Nordic Africa Institute. This book was released on 2001 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of African Otherness has occupied a central role in discourses on cultural production in Africa, whether film, literature, music or the arts. These claims, articulated both by ‘Western' and ‘African' critics and consumers, means that particular criteria and standards are adopted in relation to cultural production in Africa. The claim to African Otherness is gaining new strength in the wake of globalization, but it is also increasingly challenged by a number of contemporary artists. This book deals with the question of relevance and meaning of the signifier in various fields of contemporary cultural production in Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negotiating Democracy addresses issues that have defined the challenges and consequences of media transformation faced by new and emerging democracies. These issues include the dismantling of national broadcasting systems, the promotion of private independent and pluralistic media, the clash between liberal democratic and authoritarian political traditions, negotiations about the appropriate broadcast language, and the potential for free press and for freedom of speech. The contributors use examples from countries such as Cambodia, Bulgaria, Iran, Nigeria, and Taiwan to not only provide detailed analysis of regional and/or nation-specific cases of media, but also to identify transnational patterns that help deepen the understanding of the media's role in globalization.

Download or read book Radio Fields written by Lucas Bessire and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-11-19 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radio is the most widespread electronic medium in the world today. As a form of technology that is both durable and relatively cheap, radio remains central to the everyday lives of billions of people around the globe. It is used as a call for prayer in Argentina and Appalachia, to organize political protest in Mexico and Libya, and for wartime communication in Iraq and Afghanistan. In urban centres it is played constantly in shopping malls, waiting rooms, and classrooms. Yet despite its omnipresence, it remains the media form least studied by anthropologists.Radio Fieldsemploys ethnographic methods to reveal the diverse domains in which radio is imagined, deployed, and understood. Drawing on research from six continents, the volume demonstrates how the particular capacities and practices of radio provide singular insight into diverse social worlds, ranging from aboriginal Australia to urban Zambia. Together, the contributors address how radio creates distinct possibilities for rethinking such fundamental concepts as culture, communication, community, and collective agency.
Book Synopsis David Ghartey-Tagoe by : David Kwesi Ghartey-Tagoe
Download or read book David Ghartey-Tagoe written by David Kwesi Ghartey-Tagoe and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-07-28 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a remarkable book and Kwesi, my brother and dear friend, has done a wonderful job capturing the essence of our father, David Ghartey-Tagoe, who we also affectionately call "Mpaa". Kwesi demonstrates in this book that he knows Mpaa well. This is not surprising. After all, he is the first born, shares the same Christian name, lived with him longer than any of the other siblings, has followed a similar career path, and as he explains in the book, has many other things in common with Mpaa. In addition to providing insights into what it is like being the son of Mpaa, this book also reflects Kwesi's extensive research into Mpaa's life as a youth, family man, teacher, and broadcaster. Interestingly, it also provides a tutorial on various aspects of Efutu culture.

Book Synopsis The Challenge of Sustaining Emergent Democracies by : Joseph Osei
Download or read book The Challenge of Sustaining Emergent Democracies written by Joseph Osei and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-07-24 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent political crises in Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Georgia should alert all to the fact that the emergent democracies that mushroomed all over Africa and Eastern Europe at the end of the last century cannot be taken for granted. They face multiple obstacles including political manipulation, poverty, dependency, racism, ethnicism, religious extremism, short-sighted nationalism, fraud, and corruption of all types. Are these democracies sustainable? Were the skeptics right? Are the obstacles due to internal or external factors or both? Could democracy itself with its emphasis on freedom and self-determination cause ethnic conflicts? This book does not only identify and analyze the main obstacles but also argues that they can be overcome with thoughtful strategies. These include identifying the inherent strengths and weaknesses of democracy, contextualizing some democratic ideals and practices for developing economies, minimizing dependences, making religion an ally for fighting fraud, corruption, and for promoting peace and social transformation, and adopting a pro-democracy and pro-development philosophy of education. Rev Dr. Joseph Osei is Professor of Philosophy at Fayetteville State University, NC. His PHD in Philosophy is from The Ohio State University (1991), the M.A is from Ohio University (1986) and the B.A. in Philosophy & Religion is from The University of Ghana (1981). Osei is also a graduate of Trinity Theological Seminary (Legon) and an ordained minister of The Methodist Church, Ghana. He was born at Kokofu, Ashanti, Ghana in 1951 and is married to Victoria Osei. They have five kids: Lucy, Gina, Suzie, Miriam, and Emmanuel.
Book Synopsis Media Reforms and Democratization in Emerging Democracies of Sub-Saharan Africa by : Ufuoma Akpojivi
Download or read book Media Reforms and Democratization in Emerging Democracies of Sub-Saharan Africa written by Ufuoma Akpojivi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the media reform processes and re-democratization projects of Ghana and Nigeria’s emerging democracies. It evaluates and critiques these reform processes, arguing that because of dependency approaches resulting from the transplanting of policy framework from the West into these emerging democracies, the policy goals and objectives of the reforms have not been achieved. Consequently, the inherent socio-cultural, economic and political factors, coupled with the historical antecedents of these countries, have also affected the reform process. Drawing from policy documents, analyses and interviews, Ufuoma Akpojivi argues that the lack of citizens’ active participation in policy processes has led to neo-liberalization and the continued universalization of Western ideologies such as democracy, media freedom and independence. Akpojivi posits that the recognition of socio-cultural, political and economic factors inherent to these emerging democracies, coupled with the communal participation of citizens, will facilitate true media reform processes and development of these countries.
Book Synopsis Cultural Economy and Television in Jamaica and Ghana by : Deborah Hickling Gordon
Download or read book Cultural Economy and Television in Jamaica and Ghana written by Deborah Hickling Gordon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes contemporary decolonization as an approach to developing cultural economies in the Global South. It presents the account of the transformation of television in Jamaica and Ghana to audiovisual subsectors; from cultural institutions to cultural industries and then subsectors of emerging cultural economies as representative case studies. ‘Glocal’ changes are presented within five organizing phenomena: philosophical, ideological, and economic change, and their impact on governance and the operational transformation of the television sectors of Jamaica and Ghana. This book represents the first critical examination and comparison of cultural and creative industries (CCI) and economy concepts in the Caribbean and Africa. It is an original contribution to the development of strategies that influence processes, structures, and policies related to the cultural economy concept and those required to improve television industries. This process of describing culturally specific characteristics of CCI is designed to be applicable to the CCI of developing countries including those in Africa and the Caribbean, where interpretations and implementation suited for advanced industrial nations have been insufficiently questioned and challenged.
