General Médias Diplomatic Relations
This book is a study of the relationship of news media and modern diplomacy. The growth of mass communications and the interest of the citizens of democratic societies in international affairs have certain implications for diplomacy. By examining British diplomacy, this study attempts to pinpoint those areas where the media impinge on the foreign policy process either in terms of having an influence on public opinion, by providing new information to policy makers, or in terms of being used by officials as channels to other governments and to the public at home and abroad. -- Preface (p.
