This book provides an important set of critical reflections from a selection of foundational scholars of African media and communication studies through biographical method. The book interrogates the center of mainstream academic scholarship by providing the foundational history and origins of an Africanist conceptual model while highlighting its significance globally.The editors use biographical and life story interviews to critically review the respondents’ interpretations of their key works and arguments in relation to key moments in the field, the continent and globally. Though the book is focussed on recovering pioneering arguments by key thinkers in African media and communication, efforts of individual academics are to be understood in the context of their work with others and within institutions that are networked, locally and globally. By bringing together many of the leading figures of African communication and media studies in a single volume, this book provides a critical corrective to the dearth of knowledge and information about who the key thinkers are and what their key arguments, theories and models for media and communication in African contexts entail.As such, it will be of interest to scholars of media and communications in Africa, and the global south.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available by KU 2025 under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

This book grapples with the first few years of South Africa’s journey out of apartheid. The book’s focus is on the South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) because the SABC was the first organisation transformed in post-apartheid South Africa. Because the SABC’s highly visible politico-cultural role, the incoming African National Conference (ANC) government saw the need to revamp this organisation as quickly as possible. Consequently, the SABC played a pioneering role in the post-apartheid transformation process. And given that the SABC was at the cutting edge of the post-apartheid change process, it provides a useful fulcrum for examining the wider issues of South Africa’s social change. As leading ANC spokeswoman Sheila Sisulu said: “We now plan to use the SABC transformation-model for the wide transformation of South Africa.”
