Recenzje

<"Ruth Moon has produced a riveting 'insider' perspective that confronts deeply ingrained assumptions on journalism in Rwanda (and related African authoritarian contexts) and offers a stellar intervention that shows how journalism, and its inner workings vary considerably across the globe. If the ultimate test of the impact of a journalism scholarly book is its transformative potential both to the discipline and on practice and policy, then Authoritarian Journalism can clearly be counted among such innovative pieces of scholarly work.>" Hayes Mawindi Mabweazara , University of Glasgow
