Recenzii
Impressively, the case studies collected in this book come from West, Central, East, and Southern Africa. They insightfully and innovatively cover the pivotal issue of communications rights from diverse perspectives – from digital inclusion and communication rights of marginalised communities to ordinary citizens’ battles with Internet shutdowns and the struggles to legislate intellectual property rights in contexts of digitalisation. In putting together this book, Tendai Chari and Ufuoma Akpojivi have given students, researchers, policymakers, media professionals, and rights activists a must-have and must-read piece of work.
