Media Law Handbook

KAS Media Africa

In this e-book we unpack the internationally-developed standards and best practise models of democratic media regulation. We look at universally-agreed norms for democratic media regulation generally, democratic broadcasting regulation and for imposing restrictions upon or otherwise regulating media content. We also look at almost all of the countries in SADC (“the Southern African Development Community”) on a country-by-country basis to identify and analyse each country’s media laws. Additional chapters to follow.

Crucially, its content has been produced by African journalists, and the case studies used reflect the continent’s reality.
