Conclusion.This book explores how community radio contributes to social change. Community radio remains a unique communication platform under digital capitalism, arguably capable of expanding the project of media democratisation. Yet there is a lack of in-depth analysis of community radio experience, and a dearth of understanding of its functionality as an actively transformative tool for greater equity in society. This project combines the theoretical positions of the political economy of communication with a citizen's media perspective in order to interrogate community radio's democratic potential. By presenting case studies of two radio stations in Melbourne and Lospalos, and applying multiple research methods, the book reveals community radio's amplification of media participation, communication rights, counter-hegemony and media power - in effect, its distinct regenerative voice.Palgrave Studies in Communication for Social Change,2634-6400CommunicationCommunication in economic developmentJournalismMedia and CommunicationDevelopment CommunicationJournalismCommunication.Communication in economic development.Journalism.Media and Communication.Development Communication.Journalism.302.23302.2344Fox Julietauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1227221BOOK9910484400303321Community Radio's Amplification of Communication for Social Change2849591UNINA
