Mundo e Comunicação

>Mundo e Comunicação is a history of diplomacy of the twentieth century, mainly seen in two areas: the U.S. and Communication. Since the U.S. ended its foreign policy of isolationism, entering the First World War, became the decisive player of contemporary international relations. Its strength is due to multiple political and economic factors linked to radical liberalism. One of the major means that the greatest world power has used with great skill is communication policy. Being a democratically organised society, in the U.S. an election can be won or lost depending on the effectiveness of the use of communication. Early in the days, still in the nineteenth century, with the arise of the first massive newspapers, the U.S. government has recognised the extraordinary usefulness of the media and their ability to decide the fate of the world.

Mundo e Comunicação tells the history of contemporary politics in the form of small essays, which intentionally look like newspaper articles.

Mundo e Comunicação promises a simple reading on complex subjects.
