"This study focuses on Soviet television audiences and examines their watching habits and the way they made use of television programs. Kirsten Bönker challenges the common misconception that viewers perceived Soviet television programming and entertainment culture as dull and formulaic. This study draws extensively on archival sources and oral history interviews to analyze how Soviet television involved audiences in political communication and how it addressed audiences' emotional commitments to Soviet values and the Soviet way of life. Bönker argues that the Brezhnev era influenced political stability and brought an unprecedented rise of the living standards, creating new meanings for consumerism, the idea of the "home," and private life among Soviet citizens. Exploring the concept of emotional bonding, this study engages broader discussions on the durability of the Soviet Union until perestroika"--

This book focuses on Political Public Relations (PPR) Techniques of both Russian and US Leaderships. It does so by analysing leadership (presidential or otherwise) inaugural addresses from the two countries between 1980 to 2018, using triangulation analysis of verbal, non-verbal language, and emotions of speakers. Given that the Russian perception of Political Public Relations, known as Political Technologies (PT) in Russia, is unique and often misunderstood or misinterpreted in Western scholarship, the book acts as a bridge between these two fields of studies. With that in mind, the study of Political Technologies is explained and applied in a wider sense than is offered by other disciplines, specifically in more meaningful ways than suggested in communications discipline in the West. In doing so, the book not only offers a deep dive into theory, but also provides a unique methodology aiming at extracting and analysing PPR or PT techniques. This triangulation method allows us to investigate a combined effect of audio visual and verbal "effects" on the general public, and offers a way of interpreting such "effects". Readers would understand more about the research dynamic in PPR discipline, apply the triangulation methodology to expand this research, and more generally find out more about the evidence-based list of PPR techniques and their applications and interpretations. Dr Albina Gayoso is an expert in political PR and behavioural psychology. Her academic career started in Russia where she completed a Bachelors with Honours in International Relations. She has been actively involved in UN volunteering during her years as a student, and in 2014 she became a recipient of a University of Newcastle (Australia) International Postgraduate Research Scholarship and UON Research Scholarship. She then moved to Australia to pursue her PhD project in Political Communication, where her research explored the practice of Political Public Relations techniques and their components, with a particular focus on the use of verbal and nonverbal communication in inaugural addresses of Russian and U.S. presidents with a focus on the years from 1981 through to 2013. Currently, she is working as Senior Stakeholder Engagement Officer at NSW Government and teaching at UN research and training centre CIFAL Newcastle. .

"This volume explores the applications of narrative and storytelling in corporate, public health and political communications, and its implications for those fields. Using diverse research methods including surveys, experiments, case studies and content analyses, an international team of authors first explore conceptual and theoretical issues of narrative persuasion, then examine the impact and application of narratives in science communication, political advertising, corporate communication and social movement, before discussing the use of stories in community building, identity construction and civic engagement. This timely volume will be of interest to academics, researchers and graduate students who are interested in narratives and communications, within the areas of public relations, public communication, organizational communication, strategic communication, risk and crisis communication, and political communication"--

Big data raise major research possibilities for political communication scholars who are interested in how citizens, elites, and journalists interact. With the availability of social media data, academics can observe, on a large scale, how people talk about politics. The opportunity to study political discussions is also available to media organizations and political elites-examining how they make use of big data represents another fruitful scholarly trajectory. The scholars involved in Digital Discussions represent forward thinkers who aim to inform the study of political communication by analyzing the behavior of and messages left by citizens, elites, and journalists in digital spaces. By using a variety of methodological approaches and bringing together diverse theoretical perspectives, this group sheds light on how big data can inform political communication research. It is critical reading for those studying and working in communication studies with a focus on big data.

What does the state do when public expectations exceed its governing capacity? 'The Performative State' shows how the state can shape public perceptions and defuse crises through the theatrical deployment of language, symbols, and gestures of good governance-performative governance. Iza Ding unpacks the black box of street-level bureaucracy in China through ethnographic participation, in-depth interviews, and public opinion surveys. She demonstrates in vivid detail how China's environmental bureaucrats deal with intense public scrutiny over pollution when they lack the authority to actually improve the physical environment. They assuage public outrage by appearing responsive, benevolent, and humble. But performative governance is hard work. Environmental bureaucrats paradoxically work themselves to exhaustion even when they cannot effectively implement environmental policies.

“A much needed study which shows how the once highly contested ‘Euro Crisis’ has found wider resonance across the German, Polish and the UK public spheres thus shaping their discursive patterns of European integration in the new millennium. The book gives an excellent account of dynamics of Europe-related debates in pre-Brexit EU, and connects excellently to ongoing intellectual debates on how various crises have shaped today's EU-rope. An obligatory read for those interested in Europe, crisis, discourse as well as in wider politics of European integration.” -Prof. Michał Krzyzanowski, Chair in Media & Communications, Uppsala University, Sweden. "The European media speak distinct, local languages, chiefly to national audiences. However, Katarzyna Sobieraj’s book shows a powerful bonding factor, which is the neoliberal ideology rather than the quest for European solidarity. This book is highly recommended not only to students of media communication, but also to those interested in European politics, ideologies, and financial crises." -Jan Zielonka is Professor of European Politics at the University of Oxford and Venice, Ca Foscari. This book offers a comparative study of the political debate on the Euro crisis in the press. In the tradition of Critical Discourse Analysis, it investigates the ways in which discourse produces and reproduces social domination. The book examines the discursive constructions of the crisis in a selection of broadsheet newspapers in Germany, Poland, and the UK. It demonstrates how neoliberalism determined the hegemonic discourse on the Euro crisis, which resulted in ideologically biased discursive constructions that created and legitimised an image of non-agentic social change. The book will appeal to an international audience of discourse and media studies, political communication, and linguistics. Katarzyna Sobieraj is based in Brussels and works at the European Commission. She completed her PhD at the University of Wroclaw and MA at Humboldt University in Berlin. She was an associate in ‘The Euro Crisis, Media Coverage, and Perceptions of Europe within the EU’ project at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism, University of Oxford.

The Monstrous Discourse in the Donald Trump Campaign: Implications for National Discourse provides a lens through which to explore the implications of the monster metaphor, as applied to Trump during the 2016 presidential election. Analyzing the overt and buried usages of the monster metaphor in the media's and Trump's discourse, as well as the structure of the monster narrative generally, offers connections between the metaphor and the actions incited by its narrative. This book explores the ways in which this language also serves as a metaphor to understand the ecology of Trump's candidacy and the polarized responses drawn by his campaign and considers its troubling implications for the future direction of national discourse.
