dc.description.abstract
The author focuses on a Christian broadcaster in Parakou, northern Benin, and
analyses its main production structures, its programming, and the actors and
their motives involved. It demonstrates how religious media, themselves an
assemblage of institutions, actors, significations and infrastructures,
participate in consituting the religious domain. Religious culture in Parakou
and, more generally, in Benin is not dictated by religious authorities alone:
it is made by pastors, lay presenters and their listeners – especially when
they participate in interactive radio shows, or join a listeners’ club. Both
producers and listeners find new avenues to live their faith. Radio producers
and their listeners occupy new spaces to live their faith and gain new media
experiences to valorise their skills and knowledge, as well as to experience
themselves as part of a larger religious community.
