The first comprehensive study of how digital media is regulated across Africa's diverse political and legal landscapes.

As one of the few books focused exclusively on the governance of new media across the African continent, Regulating Digital Media in Africa offers a timely and critical engagement with the legal and policy frameworks shaping broadcasting, social media, and the broader digital ecosystem. Drawing on in-depth case studies from African scholars who cover a wide range of African countries and political systems and interviews with professionals involved in shaping or contesting regulatory outcomes, the book reveals key trends, contradictions, and policy dilemmas in new media regulation. It highlights how governments are responding to challenges such as internet shutdowns, online harms, data governance, and digital legislation.

This book provides a strong conceptual and empirical foundation for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners interested in digital governance in Africa. With its Global South perspective, it offers valuable contributions to broader debates on media regulation, sovereignty, and internet governance.
