"Report of a seminar which explored the manner in which African news is presented by the European press. In two parts: "The Mass Media in Africa" and "Reporting Africa by the International Mass Media." In the first part, emphasis is on the English-speaking African nations - Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria - although there are chapters on the African mass media as institutions of African political systems, and on the freedoms and functions of mass communications in Africa. The second part deals with the way selected European nations present African news, with a chapter each on the British, French, and North American mass media, a single chapter on the Soviet and Czechoslovak presses, and four chapters on Scandinavian broadcasting systems, including Finnish. Part II also contains sections on the problem of cultural translation in the reporting of African social realities, and other problems confronting correspondents specializing in Africa."
