This book focuses on the role of culture in the process of development, and on strategies for ensuring the growth of indigenous African culture and the strengthening of cultural industries in the African context. The prospects for filmmaking, the performing arts, publishing, radio, museums, art, and traditional storytelling in Africa are creatively examined and explored by some of Africa's most creative cultural figures.

This book combines thoughtful analysis of the problems and a "state of the art" assessment of key cultural industries with practical suggestions for improvement and progress.
