"Dr. Unwana Samuel Akpan has produced an invaluable edited volume whose scope is unparalleled in media studies of the Global South. The text's 18 chapters by both established and emerging scholars examine the various ways that digital media are reshaping African culture, daily experiences, and history. Their research is both refreshing and provocative, but above all, it is extremely contemporary in the issues it raises from critical and feminist perspectives. It deserves a place on every academic shelf." - Dr. Carolyn M. Byerly, Professor Emerita, Communication, Culture and Media Studies, Howard University, Washington DC, USA "African Media Space and Globalization is a timely volume and a must-read. An excellent illumination of Africa's rapidly evolving mediascape in the global digital environment; essays reflect rigorous scholarship, insightful analysis, and cutting-edge critique of factors driving media development, engagement, and consumption. The work's broad thematic scope, multi-perspectival approach, and solid theoretical grounding, commends it to media observers, analysts, practitioners, and regulators." - Prof. Bala A. Musa, Ph.D. Azusa Pacific University, USA This book surveys the African media industry, examining various sections of the media at the elite level. Drawing on contributors from diverse regions and media and communication disciplines, the book provides definitive analyses of the switch from analogue to digital broadcasting in select African countries. This timely and relevant collection of essays covers trending topics in communication and media studies, as scholars globally continue to examine the impact of digital technology on media practice, training, and education. The contributors offer rich perspectives on crucial issues, blending practice and scholarship as former media practitioners and academics come together to fill a major gap in media practice and education in Africa. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of globalization and African media. Dr. Unwana Samuel Akpan is a media scholar-practitioner with over two decades of broadcast experience. He is a lecturer in the Department of Mass Communication, University of Lagos, Akoka-Lagos, Nigeria. He is the Editor of The University of Lagos Communication Review.
