Este artigo apresenta uma discussão sobre podcasts narrativos por meio da análise de Radio Ambulante, programa em língua espanhola criado nos Estados Unidos, em 2011. A pesquisa pretende demonstrar que o surgimento do podcast narrativo está fortemente vinculado à tradição da National Public Radio (NPR), a rede de emissoras públicas norte-americana fundada em 1970. O texto apresenta um pouco da história e exemplos de produções da NPR que se tornaram fundamentais no desenvolvimento da tradição jornalística do podcast. A seguir, destaca o projeto de Radio Ambulante como um dos mais importantes representantes dessa tradição fora do idioma inglês. Na sequência, são analisados dois episódios desse podcast: “Las Hijas de Maria Señorina” e “Mais Médicos”, produções de 2018 que, por serem dedicadas total ou parcialmente ao Brasil, tiveram seus áudios transcritos em português.

Using Data

The implementation of public policy is one of the activities in a public policy process that determines whether a policy is in contact with the public interest and can be accepted by the public. Implementation of the Regional Scholarship Program for Lamandau Regency Students based on the Regulations of the Regent of Lamandau Number. 24 of 2013. The scholarship program in the Lamandau Regency area has been in place since 2009 and this program was carried out by the Education and Culture Office of Lamndau Regency. This program aims to help students from Lamandau Regency to accelerate the lecture process and to improve human resources. This study uses a qualitative approach, data collection obtained from interviews, observation, and documentation. And using data analysis techniques in the form of data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. In this study the author uses the Geogre C. Edward III policy implementation model with 4 (four) variables, namely communication, resources, position and bureaucratic structure. Based on the results of the research based on communication variables, it is still not optimal. The lack of socialization from the Dinas to students who will receive scholarship assistance, for resources such as the number of staff, facilities and infrastructure is sufficient. As for the inhibiting factors for this program, the delay in channeling funds from the company as donors and students is still lacking pay attention to systematics, and the requirements set by the Education and Culture Office of Lamandau Regency.

This chapter evaluates the UK government strategy to promote electronic voting through the public policy process as an integral part of the e-government agenda to enhance participatory democracy. It argues that the formulation of the present policy is flawed as it lacks a diffusion strategy to enhance the likelihood of policy adoption. The electoral modernisation policy arose from concerns regarding the falling voter turnout at elections and is being introduced via local authorities through a series of voluntary pilot schemes. If issues influencing local authority pilot participation are not resolved e-voting may be permanently rejected by local elected representatives and so will not be available to citizens. This author identifies variables influencing pilot participation and suggests a revised public policy model incorporating selected diffusion concepts at the formulation stage of the linear policy process. The model is used to propose recommendations to enhance the likelihood of voluntary adoption of a policy introduced by central government for voluntary implementation by local government.

The Media

This chapter examines the relevance of media and public opinion to our understanding of foreign policy and international politics. It first considers whether public opinion influences foreign policy formulation, as argued by the pluralist model, or whether the public are politically impotent, as argued by the elite model. It then explores whether the media can influence foreign policy formulation, as argued by the pluralist model, or whether the media are fundamentally subservient to the foreign policy process, as argued by the elite model. It also integrates these competing arguments with theoretical frames used in the study of international relations: namely, realism, liberalism, and critical approaches (including constructivism and post-structuralism). The chapter concludes by discussing contemporary debates concerning organized persuasive communication and the ‘war on terror’.
