Beschreibung

A fascinating exploration of modern podcasting as a tool for decolonization In The Podcaster's Dilemma: Decolonizing Podcasters in the Era of Surveillance Capitalism, Drs. Nolan Higdon and Nicholas Baham III connect contemporary podcasting to the broader history of the use of radio technology in the service of anti-colonial struggle and revolution. By organizing the book's analysis of decolonization through podcasting via three distinct activities--interrogation and critique, counter-narrative, and call to action--the authors create a lens through which they analyze and evaluate the decolonizing potential of new podcasts. The book also critiques the threat to the decolonizing efforts of some modern podcasts by the growing phenomena of surveillance capitalism and the emerging podcast oligopoly. The Podcaster's Dilemma reveals both potential and challenges in the podcasting space as podcasters struggle to put forward insightful new narratives funded by anti-capitalist models. This important book also includes: * A thorough introduction to the podcasters profiled in the book and an examination of how they're using podcasts to decolonize themselves from colonial mentalities * Practical discussions of how the profiled podcasters interrogate and critique the veracity of neoliberal, racist, imperialist, patriarchal, heterosexist, classist, and ableist white-centered ideologies * Comprehensive explorations of the counter-narrative production phase of a decolonizing podcaster's process * In-depth treatments of the community activism created by decolonizing podcasts The Podcaster's Dilemma: Decolonizing Podcasters in the Era of Surveillance Capitalism is an indispensable new resource for critical media, communications, ethnic studies, and political science scholars, as well as undergraduate and graduate students. It is also perfect for anyone interested in the broad expansion of intersectional voices in dialogue about everything from political organizing to plant-based diets.

Rezensionen

- Robin Andersen, Professor Emerita at Fordham University
"From the rich details and engaging topics on the podcasts featured in these pages, to the crisp writing about the hosts, their guests and the counternarratives of decolonization, everything about this book is a breath of fresh air. Higdon and Baham have set the standard for designing compelling and original research and imparting the wisdom of their findings about this popular medium and the extraordinary producers who have harnessed its discursive powers."
- Mickey Huff, director of Project Censored, president of the Media Freedom Foundation; professor of social science, history, and journalism, Diablo Valley College.
"In Podcaster's Dilemma: Decolonizing Podcasters in the Era of Surveillance Capitalism, scholars Baham and Higdon, podcasters themselves, deliver a major, breakthrough study on an exploding medium...Well-researched, powerfully argued, cautious but optimistic, Baham and Higdon's The Podcaster's Dilemma gives the reader a broad yet deep understanding of the media ecology around this wildly popular format while offering sage advice regarding the direction it could take to become a major force for decolonizing major sectors of society. A gripping and important read for our times."
