摘要、提要註:	This book explores the thesis that civic cynicism in African countries is a major obstacle tothe consolidation of democracy, and that the African press should address the problem not just amongleaders, but also among the general populace. Finding that corruption has extended from leaders andgovernmental institutions to the populace itself, the author asserts that the growing independent press needs to intensify its critique of the public attitude and civic orientation, the fertile soilon which corruption in public life has thrived.
