About this title

Synopsis

This research monograph, compiled by South African experts in community broadcasting with the assistance of key figures in the sector, traces the two-decade campaign for local-level television in South Africa. It highlights the development of policy, reviews existing international models, and spells out the technical, financial, and managerial challenges that face this sector. An informative chronicle that explores the introduction of a quality, accessible, local television-network that represents the final piece in post-apartheid's media jigsaw puzzle.
