The reform of broadcasting, telecommunications, the state information agency and the print press from apartheid-aligned apparatuses to accountable democratic institutions took place via a complex political process in which civil society activism, embodying a post-social democratic ideal, largely won out over the powerful forces of formal market capitalism and older models of state control. In the cautious acceptance of the market, the civil society organizations sought to use the dynamism of the market while thwarting its inevitable inequities. Forged in the crucible of a difficult transition to democracy, communication reform in South Africa was navigated between the National Party's embrace of the market and the African National Congress leadership's default statist orientation. 410 0$aCommunication, society, and politics. 606 $aCommunication policy$zSouth Africa 606 $aDemocracy$zSouth Africa 615 0$aCommunication policy 615 0$aDemocracy 676 $a302.2/0968 700 $aHorwitz$b Robert Britt$0480799 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814956303321 996 $aCommunication and democratic reform in South Africa$94068261 997 $aUNINA
