| East African Media Project - Media briefs |
|
|
|
|
Our LSE Research Assistants have authored Media Briefs for each of the seven countries represented in the Fellowship programme. Background research for the assignment began in November 2004, in consultation with the East African journalists through email and later through discussions and interviews during the course of the Fellowship. The briefs provide an overview of the media climate, level of press freedom, nature of media ownership and the major actors in each country. There is also a useful summary of the local media channels available, some of which are accessible online. We welcome your comments and feedback on the briefs, which should be emailed to Alicia Altorfer-Ong. |

Highlights
Culture and politics in African media studies
This series of occasional papers will focus on contemporary issues within African media studies.
Preference will be given to research that emphasizes the particular cultural and political factors that have shaped the development of media systems and vice versa. Such issues could include, for example, the role of media in the nation and state-building process, the consolidation of political power, reconciliation (or its failure) and conflict/post-conflict situations.
