Through innovative research studies and expert commentaries, this
book documents the fast evolving invention of the relationship
between the millions of social media and mobile phone users around
Africa and traditional purveyors of news. Whilst social media
demonstrates an unprecedented ability for the politically engaged
to both bypass and influence traditional information flows, it also
faces unique circumstances through much of Africa. Signs of social
change brought by mobile technology are evident around the
continent, raising questions about the nature of information
exchange and citizenship. Working from a wide variety of
perspectives and methodologies, the contributors to this collection
address key questions emerging from rapid communication change in
Africa. This book reveals how new, participatory, interactive
communications technologies are enabling new tellings of Africa's
stories. This book was originally published as a special issue of
Ecquid Novi: African Journalism Studies.
