Bog beskrivelse

Over the past ten years, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi, Chad, Central African Republic, Republic of Congo and Rwanda all organized pluralist elections in a post conflict context, having experienced an armed conflict which either interrupted or prevented democratization processes. These polls were organized with the support of the international community, which viewed them as a crucial step in the peace-building process. The local media''s role throughout was supposed to be to ensure that an electoral process is actually ''free and fair'' - a role that becomes even more crucial in countries where the media have previously being perceived as warmongers or peace-builders in the conflicts.

Giving a voice to African journalists and analysing the work they have been publishing or broadcasting during these elections, African media specialist Marie-Soleil Frere explores if and how the local media fulfilled their duties. In doing so, the book reveals journalists'' professional challenges at a time when much is expected from the media, as well as the intense political pressure faced that can make their work particularly difficult.

Insightful and comprehensive, Elections and the Media in Post-Conflict Africa underlines both the importance and the fragility of the role of the media in a democratic system.
