People have left increasingly deep and pervasive footprints across the region, resulting in the anthropogenically crafted landscape of the present. The book shows how understanding contemporary issues, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, conservation, agricultural development, and achieving the sustainable development agenda, all require an appreciation of the past. The volume explore these interactions from the origins of human species with a particular focus on the last 500 years the Anthropocene. As trade, particularly of ivory, maize, and munitions, expanded with the Asia, Europe and the Americas this shaped many of the current issues in East Africa's society, economy, and environment. These trade links paved the way for the colonial era that started at an atypical moment in East African environmental history. The colonial impacts on society, ecosystems, Protected Areas, biodiversity conservation, and the ensuing legacy through the independent states of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda are explored. Given this rich, diverse, and connected past, what the future will be like for East African societies, ecosystems, and landscapes under climate change, high population growth, and rapid development? Rob Marchant is Professor of Tropical of Ecology at the University of York, UK. Much of his research is focused on East Africa, where over the past thirty years of working in Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania he has developed close collaborations with the numerous University, NGO, UN and Governmental institutions that, alongside multiple conversations with individuals, have profoundly influenced and shaped the perspectives presented here. The interplay between the climate, ecosystems, cultures, livelihoods, and land uses are explore to document how the massive challengesfacing the region have been created, are being addressed and future opportunities maximized. 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects 606 $aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aAfrica$xHistory 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aHuman ecology$xHistory 606 $aEnvironmental Social Sciences 606 $aEnvironmental Studies 606 $aIntegrated Geography 606 $aAfrican History 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aEnvironmental History 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aHuman ecology$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 0$aAfrica$xHistory. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aHuman ecology$xHistory. 615 14$aEnvironmental Social Sciences. 615 24$aEnvironmental Studies. 615 24$aIntegrated Geography. 615 24$aAfrican History. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEnvironmental History. 676 $a363.70096 676 $a304.2096 700 $aMarchant$b Rob$01074929 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ $d YDX 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bGW5XE 801 2$bFIE 801 2$bEBLCP 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bN$T 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bUKAHL 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bWAU 801 2$bOCLCO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910520094803321 996 $aEast Africa's Human Environment Interactions$92582913 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05089nam 22006375 450 001 9910683348703321 005 20251008143621.0 010 $a9783031147173 010 $a3031147170 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-14717-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7218104 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7218104 035 $a(OCoLC)1374425391 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-14717-3 035 $a(CKB)26305236300041 035 $a(EXLCZ)9926305236300041 100 $a20230321d2023 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aMedia and Communication Theory in Africa /$fedited by Nelson Okorie, Babatunde Raphael Ojebuyi, Ngozi Okpara 205 $a1st ed. 2023. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2023. 215 $a1 online resource (353 pages) 311 08$aPrint version: Okorie, Nelson Media and Communication Theory in Africa Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023 9783031147166 327 $aChapter 1: Normative press theories and the revisiting of media roles in Africa?s changing socio-economic and political contexts -- Chapter 2: Theorizing African Journalism: The reportage of China?s maritime Silk road initiative in four Afrian newspapers -- Chapter 3: Legislative Control and Native Metaphors in Social Media Interactions in Africa: Making liberal press theories functional in the continent -- Chapter 4: Understanding Critical and Cultural theories: An African perspective -- Chapter 5: Towards an alternative model: Theorising newspaper review as Secondary Gatekeeping by Broadcast Stations in Africa -- Chapter 6: Theories from the Communication Field: A Family Communication Perspective -- Chapter 7: Media and Public Opinion in West Africa: An interplay of Agenda Setting, Agenda Building and Framing theories -- Chapter 8: Exploring ?omniscience theory? as a theoretical framework in journalism practice -- Chapter 9: Application of theories in film techniques and productions in Africa -- Chapter 10: Espousing a Multi-Sieve Model for Conflict Sensitive Reporting in Africa -- Chapter 11: Theorizing the power of celebrities in the media landscape of Africa -- Chapter 12: Health communication models, theories and their applications in Africa -- Chapter 13: The role of the media in the management of pandemics in Africa: Apllication of selected health communication theories -- Chapter 14: Contextualizing the Technology Acceptance Model for Application in Health Communication in Africa. 330 $aThis contributed volume explores theories of media and communication and focuses on providing African perspectives on global conversations.
