It is finally out! A book I worked on for many years, offering some empirically grounded arguments on the role China is having in influencing information societies in Africa, and what this means for the global Internet. zedbooks.net/shop/book/chin…

'A very original, rigorous and well-cited contribution to the wider field of China-Africa studies and the current global conversation on internet governance. A useful counter-perspective to the dominant discourse which tends to focus on the global north.' Cobus van Staden

Nigerians are going to the polls on Saturday in one of the country’s most uncertain elections. Which influencers are driving debates online and where are divisions unfolding? Samuel Olaniran & @sdiep take stock in this new blog ⤵️ buff.ly/3KuzFrB

@carienduplessis @BreckenridgeKD @wdavison10 is surely very knowledgeable about Ethiopia, but has been following mostly the conflict lately. He may have advice of colleagues/journalists who have covered Safaricom and liberalisation. If other names come to mind, I will msg you

@BreckenridgeKD @iginioe I’m in Addis right now. Just have to put in a media query or two 🤷‍♀️. But any leads or expertise will be appreciated

Proud of the new methods series we started at @WitsHgc. It seeks to turn the tables, not “teaching” students how to apply a specific method, but showcasing how both leading researchers and young scholars have tackled old and new issues critically and creatively
Wits HGC@WitsHgc

Hi everyone! It is good to be back and with a news methods series. We look forward to hosting you! Please be on the look out for other events and seminars to assist with your academic journey!

Thank you @TinhinanEl for the generous review of "China, Africa & the Future of the Internet"! V much agree with need to look closely at distinctions and interactions among Chinese and non-C corporate agents. Maybe not a whole new book, but new developments do call for an update!

Delighted to see my review of @iginioe's excellent book "China, Africa & the Future of the Internet", published by the Journal of Development Studies @JDevStudies

Worth a read! "new research on contemporary digital media – and the digital methods that are developed alongside it – needs to be experimented with and theorised. This, we believe, requires researchers to learn to see, so to speak, the other way around."
Matti Pohjonen@objetpetitm

"If nothing else, anthropological research has shown that “truth” or recourse to facts have never been the sine qua non of human communication" rajapinta.co/2021/10/18/see…"
