Media Activism, Artivism and the Fight Against Marginalisation in the Global South: South-to-South Communication: Media and Communication Activism

Autor Andrea Medrado, Isabella Rega
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 oct 2024
This book analyses a South-to-South connection between media activists and artivists – artists who are activists – in the Global South.
The authors, Andrea Medrado and Isabella Rega, emphasise the urgent need to engage in South-to-South dialogues in order to create more sustainable connections between Global South communities and as an essential step towards identifying and facing global problems, such as state repression, social inequality and climate crises. Medrado and Rega analyse the characteristics of this connection, identify its unique contributions to the study of media and social change and discuss its long-term sustainability. They do so by focusing on instances when media narratives in countries of different Global South(s) intertwine and transform each other; specifically, the exchanges between Latin America (Brazil) and Africa (Kenya). They explore how media activism and artivism can be used as tools for global movement building and to challenge colonial legacies. They also discuss how to connect people with varied skill sets in different Global South contexts, promoting South-to-South solidarity, in a cross-continental challenge to marginalisation.
Crucial reading for students and scholars of media activism, social movements, global media and communication, development studies and international studies, as well as activists and social movement organisations.

Recenzii

Few works are so grounding, refreshing, and hopeful as Medrado and Rega’s book. Leveraging on their decade of artist activist research in Latin America and Kenya, they propose critical insights and tactics to build Global South solidarities, essential for scholars seeking to have social impact using digital and creative tools. – Payal Arora, Professor and Chair in Technology, Values, and Global Media Cultures, Erasmus University Rotterdam
In this important book, Andrea Medrado and Isabella Rega provide an insightful account of the potential of South-to-South communication in building networks for social justice. It highlights the power of research and art for scholars, activists, and practitioners alike.
