It also reveals, for the first time, the extent to which British newspaper coverage was of relevance to African and white settler readerships. British newspapers informed the political strategies and civic cultures of African activists,nationalists, liberal whites in Africa, the staunchest of white settler communities, and the first governments of independent African states and their opponents. The British press, British public opinion and British journalists became etched into the lived experiences of the end of empire affecting Anglo-African and Anglo-settler relations to this day. Arguing that the press cast a transnational web of influence over the decolonisation process in Africa, the author explores the relationships between the British, African and settler public and political spheres, and highlights the mediating power of the British press during the late 1950s. The book draws from a range of British newspapers, official government documents, newspaper archives, interviews, memoirs, autobiographies and articles printed in African and white settler papers. It will be of interest to historians of decolonisation, Africa, the media and the British Empire. 001444038 588__ $$aDescription based upon online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed February 1, 2022). 001444038 650_0 $$aDecolonization$$xPublic opinion$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001444038 650_0 $$aPress$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001444038 650_6 $$aDécolonisation$$xOpinion publique$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001444038 650_6 $$aPresse$$zGrande-Bretagne$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001444038 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xColonies$$xPublic opinion$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001444038 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xPress coverage$$zGreat Britain. 001444038 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xForeign relations$$zAfrica. 001444038 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xForeign relations$$zGreat Britain. 001444038 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xColonies$$xOpinion publique$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001444038 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xCouverture de presse$$zGrande-Bretagne. 001444038 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xRelations extérieures$$zAfrique. 001444038 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xRelations extérieures$$zGrande-Bretagne. 001444038 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001444038 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001444038 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z303089455X$$z9783030894559$$w(OCoLC)1268326002 001444038 830_0 $$aBritain and the world. 001444038 852__ $$bebk 001444038 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-89456-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001444038 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1444038$$pGLOBAL_SET 001444038 980__ $$aBIB 001444038 980__ $$aEBOOK 001444038 982__ $$aEbook 001444038 983__ $$aOnline 001444038 994__ $$a92$$bISE
