This book examines the state of print and electronic media in the United States of America, Europe, and China. The latest mass communication advances demonstrate that we live in an increasingly media-centric world. The chapters include theoretical and empirical studies that shed light on the meaning of this development. The trajectory of people’s move to electronic communication is a global phenomenon affecting their daily life. Does this trend aid or impede democracy? Is there an emerging digital divide contributing to an increasing gap between the rich and poor people and nations? The four parts of this book explore various aspects of political socialization and its relationship with different media, including print, broadcasting, and the Internet.

This collective work is a response to the need for analyses of two issues which are increasingly responsible for determining the level of security which characterizes the contemporary world.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo, precisamente, o estudo do III CONCUT. Interessou-nos traçar um perfil dos delegados e efetuar uma análise das teses apresentadas, o que significa dizer analisar as tendências políticas presentes no III CONCUT. Porém, considerando que dificilmente a luta de facções, as resoluções e as modificações nos estatutos aprovadas no III CONCUT poderiam ser entendidas sem referência ao passado, fomos levados a efetuar uma rápida avaliação dos congressos anteriores da CUT. Desse modo, este estudo assumiu, um pouco forçadamente, o caráter de uma história da CUT.
