SUMMARY:FCCC Online Talk. China in African Media: Between Influence Operations and Decolonisation
DESCRIPTION:Does the PRC’s multimodal engagement with African media promote decolonization or its media propaganda? Drawing on copious interviews with journalists from across the continent\, and complementing these with detailed analysis of secondary data\, Emeka Umejei explores this question through China’s ever-growing expansion of training\, content-sharing\, and formal media coordination initiatives across Africa.\n\n\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Emeka Umejei has taught at institutions across the continent\, including the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa\, the American University of Nigeria\, and the University of Ghana. He has also held research positions at the University of Duisburg-Essen and the University of Tubingen in Germany. His first book Chinese Media in Africa: Perception\, Performance\, and Paradox (2020) received wide acclaim. Prior to entering academia\, Dr. Umejei served as a journalist for several years\, writing for leading newspapers in Nigeria\, including the Independent and Leadership. He also served as an African correspondent for U.S.-based media outfit LNG Publications. A former Reagan Fascell Democracy (Scholarly Track) at the National Endowment for Democracy(NED) in Washington DC\, Umejei coordinates research at the Centre for Analysis of Authoritarian Influence in Africa (CAAIA). He holds a master’s degree in journalism and media studies from Rhodes University in Grahamstown\, South Africa\, and a PhD in journalism and media Studies from the University of the Witwatersrand\, Johannesburg\, South Africa.
