This book explores the convergence of urban radio with digital
media technologies in Africa, focusing on how youth are riding on
the rapid (though uneven) internet rollout on the continent to
participate and drive the production and consumption of urban
radio. With thirteen original chapters, the book sheds new light on
the changing landscape of radio in a diverse set of African
countries, illustrated with rich case studies from Zimbabwe, South
Africa, Eswatini, Nigeria and Kenya. This book covers the following
themes: youth agency and cultural power; civic engagement and
political participation; youth, identity and belonging; youth
cultural expressions as well as the impact of capitalist
imperatives on commercial radio programing in Africa. Vibrant and
innovative, Converged Radio, Youth and Urbanity in Africa reveals
the creation of a new public sphere, through which African youth
project their voices and identities, participating in and shaping
national discourse.
