Re: [Air-l] african internet research

Hi Robert,

Thank you very much for the info.

You're welcome.

I'm mostly interested in the cultural differences and similarities between African usage and Northern/Westerner usage. My thesis is about nation-buliding and the diaspora on a West African listserv. I take more of an anthropoligical approach to the subject.

In that case, try the following link: http://www.westafricareview.com/war/vol1.1/bastian.pdf Misty Bastian, Nationalism in a Virtual Space: Immigrant Nigerians on the Internet. West Africa Review (1999). Also has references at the end. Cheers, Lokman Tsui - currently looking and applying for Ph.D National Taiwan University / Leiden University
