In search of a real freedom:Ubuntuand the media

Abstract

This transitional period in our history is the opportune time for all our institutions to take stock and ask hard, soul-searching and fundamental questions about who they are, which knowledge is crucial and important, what are the consequences of knowledge and research to future generations in the shaping of thought, values and society, what are the unique features of these institutions in Africa today? In what ways these features can best be exploited to shape the people of this continent and the world in the future
