Political Communication redirects here. For the academic journal, see Political Communication journal . Political communication is a sub field of political science and communication that deals with the production, dissemination, procession and effects of information, both through media and interpersonally, within a political context. This includes the study of the media, the analysis of speeches by politicians and those that are trying to influence the political process, and formal and informal conversations among members of the public, among other aspects. Defining the concept As with many terms in social science, political communication has also been difficult to define. For instance, Robert E. Denton and Gary C. Woodward in their book Political Communication in America characterize political communication in the form of intentions of its senders to influence the political environment. In their words the crucial factor that makes communication political is not the source of a message, but its content and purpose. ref name a Denton R.E., Woodward G.C. Political Communication in America , New York Praeger, 1998, p.11 ref Brian McNair provides a similar definition when he writes that political communication is purposeful communication about politics.

Other uses Lines of Communication disambiguation Lines of Communication A line of communication or communications is the route that connects an operating military unit with its Materiel supply base . Supplies and reinforcements are transported along the line of communication. Therefore, a secure and open line of communication is vital for any military force to continue to operate effectively. Prior to the advent of the use of telegraph and radio in warfare, lines of communication were also the routes used by despatch rider s on horseback and runners to convey and deliver orders and battle updates to and from unit commanders and headquarters. Thus, a unit whose lines of communication were compromised was vulnerable to becoming isolated and defeated, as the means for requesting reinforcements and resupply is lost . The standard military abbreviation is LOC or SLOC for Sea lines of communication Sea line of communication or ALOC for Air line of communication. The interdiction of supplies and reinforcements to units closer to the front lines is therefore an important strategic goal for opposing forces.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Symbolic communication is exchange of messages that change a priori expectation of events. Examples of this are modern communication technology as also exchange of information amongst animals. In animal societies, symbolic communication helps one understand the conduct of members of cooperating groups. The behavior of weaver ant workers has been carefully studied and it has been found that communicative gestures with respect to members of the same colony are different than those used with intruders. The interpretation of the symbolic dance of honey bee s as a communicative language has been questioned by a few, though numerous experimental results over the last several decades have effectively laid this controversy to rest. See Bee learning and communication See also animal communication . By referring to objects and ideas not present at the time of communication, a world of possibility is opened. In humans, this process has been compounded to result in our current state of modernity. DEFAULTSORT Symbolic Communication Category Communication theory Ling stub lt enkl kalba ... more details

Communication diagrams represent a combination of information taken from Class diagram Class , Sequence diagram Sequence , and Use case diagram Use Case Diagrams describing both the static structure and dynamic behavior of a system. However, communication diagrams use the free form arrangement of objects and links as used in Object diagrams. In order to maintain the ordering of messages in such a free form diagram, messages are labeled with a chronological number and placed near the link the message is sent over. Reading a communication diagram involves starting at message 1.0, and following the messages from object to object. Communication diagrams show a lot of the same information as sequence diagrams, but because of how the information is presented, some of it is easier to find in one diagram than the other. Communication diagrams show which elements each one interacts with better, but sequence diagrams show the order in which the interactions take place more clearly.
