      abstract = {This book provides a comprehensive approach of the media,  journalism and politics in Sub-Saharan Francophone Africa.  The author argues that there are common features that the  media and journalism share in the seventeen countries of  Francophone Africa and these make the local media systems  different from what they are in neighboring  English-speaking African countries, and in the rest of the  world. The approach of the media in French-speaking Africa  has not only to be "de-Westernized", but also to step out  of general overviews considering "African media." This  project shows the historical, political, economic and  sociological characteristics of the media systems of  seventeen French-speaking countries of Africa. Marie-Soleil  Frere was Professor at the Universite libre de Bruxelles  and Director of Research at the National Fund for  Scientific Research, Brussels. She passed away on March  2021.},
