Recenzje

In a book that grapples with tough and hard-hitting subjects, particularly the oft-perceived relationship between conflict, media and democracy, Herman Wasserman shows why he remains the to-go-to expert on media studies in the Global South with another brave yet refreshingly rigorous analysis on conflicts and how, despite obvious twists and turns, the media could positively contribute toward the path of democratization.
