A collection of research on digital media regulatory interventions across Africa, an area that has largely been overlooked in the literature. It considers a range of perspectives from scholars within and outside Africa on the subject, providing a compendium on digital media regulation on the continent.
The book considers the regulatory interventions that have been introduced for new media forms in Africa. This includes regulation covering digital broadcasting, social media and the wider digital media. Emphasis is placed on the regulation of new media, including digital media legislation, internet bans, regulation of online harms, data infrastructure, and digital policymaking. It presents new ideas on media and digital regulation in the Global South, focusing on the review, analysis, and critique of interventions in Africa. Detailed discussion of country case studies in the Southern African Development Community (SADC), Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) regions highlights trends, patterns, contradictions, and dilemmas in policy and regulation of new media.
