The mass media and regional integration in Africa

Description:: Although studies in African integration have been mostly in the political and economic domains (Hazzlewood, 1977), it has been argued that social integration is the pre-condition for either political or economic integration in Africa (Nye, 1966). This paper focuses on the poorly-explored concept of social integration by analysing the continent's efforts in ensuring integration through the mass media. It examines the difficulties encountered in realising such objectives and offers some suggestions for policy-makers.
