Developing alternative media traditions in Nepal

By Michael Wilmore

Michael Wilmore examines local, community media organizations in Nepal within the wider context of the historical, cultural, and social lifeworlds of their producers and consumers. His analysis of the role that media play in the formation of cultural identity and his use of ethnographic research methodologies provide a detailed, empirically-based understanding of the complex relationships that exist between local communities, the formation of modern nation-states, and global media.
