Radio Soundscapes in (Post)Colonial Settings

The Research Centre for Communication and Culture (CECC), Faculty of Human Sciences, Universidade Católica Portuguesa, organizes the 2022 International Conference "Radio Soundscapes in (Post)Colonial Settings", which takes place from 7 to 8 July.

The conference integrates work developed by CECC under the research project BiPE: Broadcasting in the Portuguese Empire, and aims to bring together scholars researching the history of colonial and postcolonial broadcasting and sound, in order to shed light on the role of radio and music in forging audible and sonorous empires and new-born nations. The event will include papers that discuss technologies, programmes and audiences in both colonial and postcolonial settings, including those focusing on the construction of new soundscapes and radio ecosystems following decolonization.
