Decoding Power: An Intriguing Exploration of Communication Policy in Politics

Abstract

In the ever-changing world of modern politics, Effective communication is essential for influencing public opinion, policy results, and power dynamics. This study explores the complex interplay between political power and communication policy, highlighting the subtle ways in which political actors develop, carry out, and employ communication tactics. Through a thorough literature review, case studies, and empirical analyses, this study seeks to clarify the various aspects of power in the context of communication policy. The study starts by looking at how communication policy has changed historically, following its origins from more conventional media to the vast digital platforms that now rule the contemporary information ecology. The paper examines communication policies' effects on political discourse's availability, openness and diversity through a critical lens, highlighting possible implications for democratic rule.
