- Reposted by mkrzyzanowski.bsky.socialIn their paper, @emmaronngren.bsky.social & Göran discuss concept of 'propaganda' while looking into its historical and still persistent relevance and viability - but while also questioning possibilities for its potential abandonment due to complexity of contemporary media & communication realities
