This book examines the effects of media interventions in the global South, and argues for a more adaptive, context-sensitive media development.

Recenzje

"Overall, the key arguments are effectively presented and contribute to the literature on statebuilding and media development. The book is worth adding to the library of anyone who is interested in (decolonizing) media assistance, international interventions, or peace- and statebuilding. Students, scholars, policymakers, journalists, practitioners, and interested readers will find valuable insights into the debate on decolonial approaches to media development and international cooperation." - Fabíola Ortiz dos Santos, Duisburg-Essen University
