Political Humour and Zimbabwean Identity on Social Media Platforms

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book studies Zimbabwean digital political communication to investigate how political satire constructs, critiques, contests, mediates, and negotiates national identity. Using two YouTube channels that specialise in satiric political skits, this book demonstrates what it means to be a Zimbabwean, and who or what authorises such belonging.
