Abstract(s)
Esta dissertação visa examinar as dinâmicas do jornalismo digital em
Angola, destacando o seu crescimento face aos desafios impostos pelos
sistemas políticos que controlam os meios de comunicação. A ascensão do
jornalismo digital no contexto angolano é explorada em paralelo ao
notável desconforto causado nos cenários políticos africanos. A análise
reconhece que, embora o desenvolvimento dos serviços de telemóvel em
África seja impulsionado pelo comércio, a sua intersecção com a esfera
política desempenha um papel crucial.
A pesquisa delineia as potencialidades do jornalismo digital na
consolidação da democracia em Angola, sublinhando a importância de
enfrentar desafios específicos, como o controlo político dos meios de
comunicação, para maximizar o impacto positivo destas transformações na
sociedade angolana. Além disso, o trabalho investigará como a
digitalização da informação pode servir como um catalisador para
mudanças sociais, oferecendo novas oportunidades para a expressão e
participação cidadã num contexto onde a liberdade de imprensa tem sido
tradicionalmente limitada.
Adicionalmente, a dissertação propõe-se avaliar a quantidade e o estado
dos órgãos de comunicação online existentes em Angola, proporcionando
uma visão detalhada das dinâmicas atuais da liberdade de imprensa no
país. Esta avaliação incluirá um mapeamento dos principais veículos de
media digital, bem como uma análise das novas plataformas emergentes,
muitas das quais operam à margem dos meios de comunicação
convencionais. A pesquisa procurará entender como estes órgãos enfrentam os desafios
impostos por um ambiente político frequentemente hostil e como
contribuem para a disseminação de informações e a formação de opinião
pública. Serão abordados casos específicos de portais de notícias e blogs
que ganharam destaque pela sua abordagem crítica e independente,
oferecendo uma perspetiva sobre as estratégias adotadas para contornar a
censura e o controlo estatal.
Ao realizar esta análise, pretende-se oferecer uma contribuição
significativa para a compreensão do impacto do jornalismo digital na
manutenção da paz e na consolidação democrática em Angola. A
dissertação incluirá entrevistas com jornalistas, académicos, e
profissionais da media, bem como uma revisão de literatura sobre o
desenvolvimento da media digital em contextos semelhantes. O objetivo é
fornecer recomendações práticas para fortalecer o jornalismo digital em
Angola, promovendo um ambiente de media mais livre, diversificado e
resiliente.
This dissertation aims to examine the dynamics of digital journalism in Angola, highlighting its growth in the face of the challenges imposed by the political systems that control the media. The rise of digital journalism in the Angolan context is explored in parallel to the notable discomfort caused in African political scenarios. The analysis recognizes that although the development of mobile phone services in Africa is driven by trade, its intersection with the political sphere plays a crucial role. The research outlines the potential of digital journalism in consolidating democracy in Angola, highlighting the importance of facing specific challenges, such as political control of the media, to maximize the positive impact of these transformations on Angolan society. Furthermore, the work will investigate how the digitalization of information can serve as a catalyst for social change, offering new opportunities for citizen expression and participation in a context where press freedom has traditionally been limited. Additionally, the dissertation aims to evaluate the number and status of existing online media outlets in Angola, providing a detailed view of the current dynamics of press freedom in the country. This assessment will include a mapping of the main digital media outlets, as well as an analysis of new emerging platforms, many of which operate outside conventional media outlets. The research will seek to understand how these bodies face the challenges posed by an often hostile political environment and how they contribute to the dissemination of information and the formation of public opinion. Specific cases of news portals and blogs that have gained prominence for their critical and independent approach will be discussed, offering a perspective on the strategies adopted to circumvent censorship and state control. By carrying out this analysis, we intend to offer a significant contribution to understanding the impact of digital journalism on peacekeeping and democratic consolidation in Angola. The dissertation will include interviews with journalists, academics, and media professionals, as well as a literature review on the development of digital media in similar contexts. The objective is to provide practical recommendations to strengthen digital journalism in Angola, promoting a freer, more diverse and resilient media environment.
