The Voice of the Mountains: Radio and Anthropology

by Alan O'Connor

No Customer Reviews

Using tape recordings, videos, and the ideas of Antonio Gramsci and Raymond Williams, this work examines the uses of radio for development, the impact on oral culture, and the use of radio by indigenous people in Ecuador and miners in Bolivia. Few anthropologists have studied radio, and The Voice of the Mountains is a unique and important text due to its approach to the field of "radio."
