reflecting a vision for change anchored in values of social
justice. Expert contributors discuss and evaluate the roles and
outcomes of media and communication for social mobilization, media
mobilization, community mobilization, advocacy, participation,
empowerment, capacity-building, resistance, networking, and action
for progressive social change. Chapters explore communicative
actions involved in social, economic, political, and cultural
integration and the transformation of individuals, communities,
places, and societies in the processes of development and social
change. Outlining the genealogy and history of the field, the
Handbook investigates the possible new directions and objectives in
the area. Key conclusions include an enhanced role for development
communication in participatory development, active agency of
stakeholders of development programs, and the operationalization of
social justice in development. Comprehensive yet accessible, this

and communication, political science, development studies, social
work, critical education, community organization, and anthropology.
