Scholars from twenty parts of the world specialized in political and government communication analyze initiatives and methods of various governments' communicative responses to the pandemic. In their contributions to this volume, they examine a wide range of distinct attitudes and reactions facing the crisis. Todays omnidirectional contact allowed by social media, with its load of contradictory rumors and fake news, often obliterates the citizens' ability to comprehend reality. The book frames a broad canvas on how government communication may deal with that and manage similar crises bound to happen as climate changes and war menaces are generating more and more worries about the future of humanity. This makes this volume a must-read for scholars and students of political communication, health policies and communication, crisis marketing and communication. It will also be of utmost interest for practitioners and policy-makers from these fields willing to better understand government communication and its answer to global crises. 650 0 COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020-2023 |xGovernment policy. 650 0 Health risk communication |xGovernment policy. 650 0 Communication in politics. 650 7 Communication in politics. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00870243 650 7 Government policy. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01353198 647 7 COVID-19 Pandemic |d(2020-) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst02024716 648 7 Since 2020 |2fast 700 1 Maarek, Philippe J., |eeditor. |1https://isni.org/isni/0000000081507233 902 940001858 |wcopy |120230217090729.0 910 |cD0701mon |d3110-10 |gYBP 914 (OCoLC)on1338669675 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20230224 |eprocessed |f1338669675 960 |o1 |zUSD 961 |fJDD |m311010 |nCloth 980 17938842 |i149.99 982 |cf 984 20221128 |b104828 |cYBP-US
