Abstract
The prominent means of political communication during the pre‐modern period was print media. During the last quarter of the nineteenth century, photography and cinema and during the first half of the twentieth century, radio and television were the new communication technologies which were used, at first, for common communication purposes.
After the first radio broadcast in the 1920s, US president Franklin D. Roosevelt started to use radio to publicize the “the new deal” program of his government, which had been drafted to restore the US economy after the 1929 economic crisis.
Radio was widely employed by totalitarian systems for the mobilization of their people and diplomatic manipulation of the international community. Especially Hitler’s Germany used radio effectively and professionally during the pre‐war period to consolidate the national socialist regime and mobilize the masses under his political designs, and during the War, to encourage and mobilize the fighting forces and people of Germany and to demoralize the peoples and military forces of the enemies.
Television broadcasting was launched during the late 1930s. But its widespread use for common communication purposes only started after the Second World War and its use for political communication could only start during the 1950s.
