Countries emerging from violent conflict face difficult challenges
about what the role of media should be in political transitions,
particularly when attempting to build a new state and balance a
difficult legacy. Media, Conflict, and the State in Africa
discusses how ideas, institutions and interests have shaped media
systems in some of Africa's most complex state and nation-building
projects. This timely book comes at a turbulent moment in global
politics as waves of populist protests gain traction, and concerns
continue to grow about fake news, social media echo chambers, and
the increasing role of both traditional and new media in waging
wars or influencing elections. Focusing on comparative cases from a
historical perspective and the choices and ideas that informed the
approaches of some of Africa's leaders, including guerrilla
commanders Yoweri Museveni of Uganda and Meles Zenawi of Ethiopia,
Nicole Stremlau offers a unique political insight into the
development of contemporary media systems in Africa.
