Book Summary
This is a scholarly collection of critical perspectives on community media in India. It examines how community-led communication can deepen democracy by creating spaces for people to raise and discuss concerns, while confronting a history of top-down development approaches that have sidelined marginalized voices. The book is aimed at students, researchers, practitioners, and policy-minded readers in media studies, development studies, anthropology, and related fields. The tone is thoughtful and empoweringโencouraging careful analysis and constructive dialogue rather than sensationalism.
Rooted in years of fieldwork by scholars and practitioners, the chapters bring together multiple modes of community mediaโvideo, radio, theatre, information and communication technologies (ICTs), and new mediaโinto a productive conversation about governance, policymaking, disability, knowledge, and other social markers. It shows how communities use their communicative practices to negotiate caste, class, gender, and access to funding and technology, revealing both constraints and transformative possibilities.
Readers finish with a nuanced understanding of how community media can empower marginalized voices, influence policy, and strengthen democratic participation. The book offers practical frameworks for evaluating media ecosystems, designing inclusive projects, and inspiring responsible leadership in community communication.
