| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/8133 The post-1990 demise of the alternative press Opatrny, Lukas Glenn, Ian Hadland, Adrian Media Studies Word processed copy. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 128-137). In this thesis, Lukas Opatrny studies the reasons for and implications of the demise of the South African alternative press, from the 1980s, after the end of apartheid. The concept of this press carried important democratic values, which contributed to media diversity, but when the 1990s ushered in the democratic era, theses 'alternative' ideals were lost along with the whole alternative press sector. ... A close analysis of [the] demise of Grassroots and the survival of the Weekly Mail/Mail & Guardian forms the basis of this study and serves to illuminate the conditions prevalent amongst the other alternative publications, which are examined more briefly. 2014-10-06T11:26:06Z 2014-10-06T11:26:06Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8133 eng application/pdf Centre for Film and Media Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
