It provides a social, historical, and strategic look at its importance for the further development of society. The contributors ask important questions about the politics of ownership and participation in the publishing industry, as well as the issues generated by representation, knowledge, language and literary, power and association, government policy and its impact on publishing as an industry. Nicholas Evans is managing director of Heinemann Publishers of Southern Africa. Monica Seeber is a freelance publishing consultant and copyright consultant to the Dramatic, Artistic and Literary Rights Organisation, South Africa. |
