Marketing Communication in African Languages (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Salawu, Abiodun; Oyesomi, Kehinde

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

While some academic attention has been paid to the impact of new digital technologies on African media in the colonial languages of English, French and Portuguese, there is a dearth of research into African language digital communication. The book will interest scholars of media, journalism, communication, social media and culture.
