Press Freedom and the Role of the State in Zambia.

      Аннотация: This book is an analysis of the weaknesses in the Zambian media laws that infringe on the principles of press freedom and freedom of expression, within the realm of the Social Responsibility and Libertarian theories of a free press. The book also identifies the role played by the Zambian state in media regulation. Despite numerous promises from the Zambian government to review media laws, they have not fulfilled their promises. As a result, the media in Zambia continues to operate under a difficult media legislative environment and consequently the growth of the media has been hampered.
