This volume connects the field of Communication for Development and Social Change to theoretical thinking on the changing notions of the public sphere. It offers a space for critical analysis of how media and communication practices for social change, on the one hand, and analytic conceptions of public spheres and participation in public processes, on the other, are currently being reconfigured in both conceptual and rhetorical terms. A range of different specialists in the arts and cultural industries, as well as academics and public intellectuals, are brought together in this volume to link these multifaceted areas and arenas to the current themes, methodologies and theorizing in the field of Communication for Development and Social Change.
