  • Africa's Soft Power : Philosophies, Political Values, Foreign Policies and Cultural Exports / Oluwaseun Tella
    “This seven-chapter book is a powerful testimonial to consummate African scholarship. Its analysis is rigorous, insightful, lucid and authoritative, providing fresh perspectives on selected uniquely African philosophies, and the potential­ ities, deployment and limitations of soft power in Africa’s international relations. The author rigorously Africanises the concept, broadening its analytic scope from its biased Western methodology, thus brilliantly fulfilling that great African pro­ verb made famous by the inimitable Chinua Achebe: ‘that until the lions have their own historians, the history of the hunt will always glorify the hunter’. This is truly an intellectual tour de force.” W. Alade Fawole, Professor of International Relations, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. “This book addresses an important tool in the arsenal of foreign policy from an African perspective. African states have significant soft power capacities, although soft power is not always appreciated as a lever of influence, or fully integrated into countries’ foreign policy strategies. Tella takes Nye’s original concept and Africanises it, discussing Egypt, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa via their respective philosophies of Pharaonism, Harambee, Omolúwàbí and Ubuntu. This study is a critical contribution to the literature on African foreign policies and how to use soft power to greater effect in building African agency on the global stage.” Elizabeth Sidiropoulos, Chief Executive, South African Institute of International Affairs, Johannesburg, South Africa. “Soft power is seldom associated with African states, given decades bedevilled by coup d’états, brazen dictatorships and misrule. This ground-breaking book is certainly a tour de force in conceptualising soft power in the African context.

  • The Reimagined Paradise: African Immigrants in the United States, Nollywood Film, and the Digital Remediation of 'Home'
    THE REIMAGINED PARADISE: AFRICAN IMMIGRANTS IN THE UNITED STATES, NOLLYWOOD FILM, AND THE DIGITAL REMEDIATION OF 'HOME' Tori O. Arthur A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2016 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Patricia Sharp Graduate Faculty Representative Vibha Bhalla Lara Lengel © 2016 Tori O. Arthur All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor This dissertation analyzes how African immigrants from nations south of the Sahara become affective citizens of a universal Africa through the consumption of Nigerian cinema, known as Nollywood, in digital spaces. Employing a phenomenological approach to examine lived experience, this study explores: 1) how American media aids African pre-migrants in constructing the United States as a paradise rooted in the American Dream; 2) immigrants’ responses when the ‘imagined paradise’ does not match their American realities; 3) the ways Nigerian films articulate a distinctly African cultural experience that enables immigrants from various nations to identify with the stories reflected on screen; and, 4) how viewing Nollywood films in social media platforms creates a digital sub-diaspora that enables a reconnection with African culture when life in the United States causes intellectual and emotional dissonance. Using voices of members from the African immigrant communities currently living in the United States and analysis of their online media consumption, this study ultimately argues that the Nigerian film industry, a transnational cinema with consumers across the African diaspora, continuously creates a fantastical affective world that offers immigrants tools to connect with their African cultural values.

It was a British colony which was amalgamated in 1914. The country became independent in 1962 and was right away bedeviled by military coups d’états and a bloody civil war (1967-1970). In 1999, the country experienced democratic dispensation. In the 1990s, the Nollywood nascent movie industry—following in the footpath of Hollywood and Bollywood—flourished. The movie industry grew thanks to four factors: Rapid urbanization; the hand-held video camera; the advent of satellite TV; and, the overseas migrations of Nigerians. Local languages are used in these films; however, English is the most prominent, along with Nigerian pidgin broken English. Many themes are treated in these films: tradition and customs, religion, witchcraft and sorcery, satire, urban and rural lives, wealth acquisition, consumerism, etc. I discuss the ways in which American popular culture is adopted in Nigeria and recreated on screen.

E-mail: [email protected] Tel: +234-8037150588 Abstract In the two decades of Nollywood’s existence, the industry has x-rayed the gamut of human happenings in Nigeria and non-Nigerian societies and films based on themes within the realms of the emotional, psychological, political, social, religious, ritual, cultural, economic and more have been produced. The various genres of filmic arts have been employed and the products of this filmic media have been produced for local and international circulation. No sphere of the Nigerian society has remained sacrosanct from Nigerian Movie Makers. The theme of Motherhood has, like other themes, been variously explored severally in Nollywood films. Motherhood in the Nigerian society is greatly esteemed and held sacred. It is at the same time an institution in which the mothers most times are treated with less than the dignity, respect and humanity they deserve from the society. The portrayal of Motherhood in Nollywood movies, have also spanned the spectrum of conceivable and inconceivable mothering abilities in the Nigerian society. This essay intends to critically analyse the concept of motherhood as portrayed by the Nollywood Movie industry, using select relevant films to advance our purpose.

  • Sexism and Gender Profiling: Two Decades of Stereotypical Portrayal of Women in Nollywood Films Kevin Uwaecheghi Onyenankeya

Sexism and Gender Profiling: Two Decades of Stereotypical Portrayal of Women in Nollywood Films By Kevin Uwaecheghi Onyenankeya1, Oluwayemisi Mary Onyenankeya2, and Oluyinka Osunkunle3 Abstract Critics of Nollywood especially gender activists, have challenged its predominant, if not exclusive portrayal of women for its narrowly traditional occupational and domestic roles and images. This paper seeks to examine various ways women are depicted in Nollywood films, including physical appearance, domestic and family life, occupational life and interpersonal relationships over a 20 year period spanning the video film era. The research employed a quantitative content method to analyse 10 films while the coding sheet that contained established content categories served as the data gathering instrument.

  • DYNAMICS of GLOBALISATION and MULTICULTURALISM for the SUSTENANCE of NOLLYWOOD Charles Effiong
    DYNAMICS OF GLOBALISATION AND MULTICULTURALISM FOR THE SUSTENANCE OF NOLLYWOOD Charles Effiong The film industry in Nigeria, Nollywood, is undoubtedly popular among the Nigerian audience and some parts of Africa. The sustainability of this popular- ity vis-à-vis the promotion of what is generally accepted as the way of life of Nigerians have become an issue among film patrons and the like in the society. In the era of globalisation, which is considered as a playing ground for com- petitiveness of qualitative cultural products, films as such product ought to qualitative enough in order to positively place Nigerian cultures in the global sphere. That is why this paper considers that the multicultural features of Ni- geria are potent means from which acceptable cultural themes can be deve- loped as films for the global audience. Being that the audience naturally de- pends on the media to understand new ideas and contribute to it development, dependency and diffusion of innovation theories are considered for this paper. A brief review of Akon-Itiat, and Efik-Ibibio film is done to show attestation to a seeming quality that can promote acceptable way of life of the people and further attract global audience. Keywords: globalisation, multiculturalism, culture, Nollywood. Introduction This work aims to show that Nigerian films, as cultural products, possess great potential to becoming a leading feature in the global media space. The resources for attaining this level of development are those cultural ingredients that are positive and veritable, and fit to compete with the challenges of other media products in the global media space.

  • Nigerian Women's Perception and Responses to Gender

BY IFEOMA VIVIAN DUNU, Ph.D. Senior lecturer, Department of Mass Communication Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria Phone: 234(08036732718, E-mail: [email protected] AND CORNELIUS AGHADIEGWU UKWUEZE, Ph.D. Lecturer, Department of Mass Communication Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria Phone: 234(08063694405, E-mail: [email protected] AND GODFREY EKENE OKAFOR Department of Mass Communication Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria Phone: 234(08068683384, E-mail: [email protected] IJOART ABSTRACT From few recent reception studies, female audiences of Nollywood movies differently receive their portrayals therein, some defining them as stereotypic and unrealistic, thereby under representing and misrepresenting the female gender. Reception studies conducted within the western Nigeria, weighed so heavily on literate receivers such as lecturers, students and Nollywood stars but considering also the effect the patriarchal Igbo customs could have on how women receive their identities, this work is a more broadened reception study of the entire women from different socio cultural backgrounds in south eastern Nigeria and sought to determine how and in what ways, these greater number of women, especially those in rural communities, negotiate or perhaps either reject or accept their identities as given in Nollywood. A mixed method of ‘Survey’ and ‘Focus Group Discussion’, were employed whereas the ‘Cultivation’ and ‘Deconstruction’ theories served as the reception frameworks to couch these reception.

This research investigates how advances in digital technology are enhancing the aesthetic and narratives of screen content producers in Nigeria in their effort to become relevant in the global marketplace. This thesis will discuss key aspects of digital storytelling in the industry by examining the processes and strategies of ‘new generation’ filmmakers in Nigeria. It will also look at how digital exhibition is reviving the screening of Nigerian films in Multiplex Cinemas using digital projectors with encryption technology, and in what way emerging business models are eliminating the distribution of cheap, easy to copy DVDs – that have plagued the industry – with Nigerian owned digital online platforms such as IROKO TV, and Afrinolly, which are now providing inexpensive and easy access to a vast global audience.
