Fri Jan 17 11:04:16 GMT 2025
New open access book, Communication and Social Change in Africa;
Selected Case Studies.
*Communication and Social Change in Africa: Selected Case Studies*
*Edited by Manfred A.K. Asuman, Theodora Dame Adjin-Tettey and Modestus
Fosu*
This book invites you to join leading Africa-focused scholars in a
conversation that vividly highlights the intricate relationship among
communication, media, culture and social change. Communication and
Social Change in Africa: Selected Case Studies provides
a timely and thought-provoking exploration of diverse and unique
understandings in the way communication, in its vast and varied
manifestations, is reshaping the continent’s future. Collectively
touching base with almost every part of Africa, the book demonstrates a
firsthand and grassroots understanding of the continent. The thirteen
case studies in the book from across the continent illuminate the
challenges, opportunities, and successes of communication-driven
narratives, offering valuable lessons for scholars, policymakers and
practitioners.
It goes without saying that this book is ideal for students, researchers
and everyone interested in appreciating Africa and its cultural and
developmental dynamics, which have been presented from different
cultural and stylistic perspectives. While sufficient in its coverage to
provide decent insights into the transformative power of communication
in African societies, this book would undoubtedly provoke the reader’s
curiosity and anticipation for a follow-up to this volume for more width
and depth about the continent through communication and social change in
Africa.
The book published by the Institute of Network Cultures at the Amsterdam
University of Applied Sciences is available for free download
