POL 329 - Campaigns: History, Practices, CommunicationThree Credits Fall Semester
Political communication is as old as civilization. When a group gathers, leaders emerge, and how they got there, and how they maintain their leadership, their power, is a function of political communication. We will focus on American political communication throughout American history with heavy emphasis on communication in the television era and how political speech evolved (or devolved) from formal language, biblical reference and hour plus speeches to television ads, sound bites and twitter bombs.
