This book fills a critical void in African research: a lack of engagement with the question of how digital capabilities can be harnessed to liberate Africa from the subtle grips of neocolonization. Bringing together seasoned and emerging scholars from diverse regions of Africa, the book dissects the intricate relationship between technology and the persistent echoes of colonial legacies. The authors distinguish between 'decolonization'-the historical struggle for independence-and the ongoing imperative of 'de-neocolonization,' an evolving battle against persistent but more subtle colonial influences, now manifesting in the digital terrain. With a focus on the profound impact of digital tools, the contributors question how these capabilities can serve as instruments of liberation in a globalized age. Through a comprehensive examination of the intersection between Africa, digital technology, and neocolonization, the book not only breaks new ground but also positions itself as an invaluable resource for students, academics, and professionals globally. By offering fresh perspectives, nuanced analyses, and innovative solutions, this book emerges as an essential addition to the global intellectual academe, reshaping the discourse on African autonomy, identity, and emancipation from neocolonial chains. Dr. Unwana Samuel Akpan is a media scholar-practitioner with over two decades of broadcast experience. He has been a visiting scholar at the Department of Communication, Culture and Media Studies (CCMS), where he completed his postdoctoral studies in the School of Communication and Media Studies, Howard University, Washington DC, USA. He is the editor of the University of Lagos Communication Review and presently a lecturer in the Department of Mass Communication, University of Lagos, Akoka-Lagos, Akoka.
