Community radio is an established and key site for negotiations of
social and political issues for marginalised communities. Given its
inherently local nature (both geographically and ideologically),
community radio is perfectly placed as a site for articulating
community concerns. At the same time, given this local quality, the
diverse ways in which stations-and broadcasters-negotiate their
community concerns vary substantially from city to city and region
to region across Canada and the US. The Cultural Work of Community
Radio investigates the multiple modes of community and broadcasting
practice at selected community stations, explores how these draw
from and reflect ongoing concerns of their host city or region, and
examines how on the ground practice maps on to overarching
broadcast policy directives and guidelines. Focusing on community
production practices with reference to policy frameworks around
community representation, this book examines and compares
differences in community radio production practices in Alaska,
Arizona, Miami, New Orleans and Toronto.
