This book advances alternative approaches to understanding media,
culture and technology in two vibrant regions of the Global South.
Bringing together scholars from Africa and the Caribbean, it
traverses the domains of communication theory, digital technology
strategy, media practice reforms, and corporate and cultural
renewal. The first section tackles research and technology with new
conceptual thinking from the South. The book then looks at emerging
approaches to community digital networks, online diaspora
entertainment, and video gaming strategies. The volume then
explores reforms in policy and professional practice, including in
broadcast television, online newspapers, media philanthropy, and
business news reporting. Its final section examines the role of
village-based folk media, the power of popular music in political
opposition, and new approaches to overcoming neo-colonial
propaganda and external corporate hegemony. This book therefore
engages critically with the central issues of how we communicate,
produce, entertain, and build communities in 21st-century Africa
and the Caribbean.
