Title: Citizens' media against armed conflict
Description: For two years, the author did ethnographic fieldwork in regions of Colombia where leftist guerrillas, right-wing paramilitary groups, the army, and drug traffickers made their presence felt in the lives of unarmed civilians. Here, she tells the story of how these civilians use community radio, television, video, digital photography, and the internet to shield their communities from armed violence's negative impacts.
