About The Botswana Media Studies Papers Vol 1

The Botswana Media Studies Papers, edited by Richard Rooney This is a collection of papers originally presented at a series of research seminars hosted by the Department of Media Studies in the Faculty of Humanities at the University of Botswana during September to November 2013. The work presented recognises the wide spectrum of teaching and research that takes place within the department; ranging, in this collection, across print media, independent television production, the representation of dance on film, corporate social responsibility and development and media literacy. Martha Mosha investigates the key elements in the Botswana print magazine production industry. Her broad research is aimed at exploring elements such as market, failures and successes of magazines, advertising in the magazines, printing, circulation, and publishers, using secondary sources as the methodology. . Divya Nair investigates the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and community development in Botswana. Her study, based on field work in Botswana, analyses the role played by grant managing institutions in delivering CSR and the perspectives of the beneficiaries in this respect. The study highlights the various challenges posed by the inadequate capacity of the grant managing institutions and the poor networking among the various nongovernmental organizations. Penelope Kakhobwe explores the correlation which exists when it comes to media literacy democracy and development. She makes a case for media literacy for all and not just high school children but all sectors of society through cooperation with various non-governmental organisations in the field. She examines this in a case study of Malawi and concludes that it is the norm in African countries for media personnel to suffer persecution for their views. Tiny Constance Thagame, using a documentary film The Wandering Souls of Mendi, she herself directed, investigates the differences and similarities between dance and film. She explores some of the technical and philosophical aspects of documenting dance. The study explores the relationship between the choreographer and the filmmaker, and how they can work together to produce a successful dance film. Bokang Greatness Ditlhokwa reports that contrary to the notion that Botswana’s independent television producers lack the professional skills to generate local television content, lack of finance is arguably the main challenge that continues to bedevil the producers. His research reveals that the local state broadcaster Botswana TV continues to make attempts to empower the independent producers through licensing of existing intellectual properties, but that it lacks the necessary and transparent guidelines to acquire television content.
