The book encompasses the various governments' communication of the crisis, the role played by opposition and the vibrancy of the information environment within each nation. The chapters analyse the communication drawing on theoretical perspectives drawn from the fields of crisis communication, political communication and political psychology. In doing so the book develops a framework to assess the extent to which state communication followed the key indicators of effective communication encapsulated in the principles of: being first; being right; being credible; expressing empathy; promoting action; and showing respect. The book also examines how communication circulated within the mass and social media environments and what impact differences in spokespersons, messages and the broader context has on the success of implementing measures likely to reduce the spread of the virus. Cumulatively, the authors develop a global analysis of the responses and how these are shaped by their specific contexts and by the flow of information, while offering lessons for future political crisis communication. This book will be of great interest to students and researchers of politics, communication and public relations, specifically on courses and modules relating to current affairs, crisis communication and strategic communication, as well as practitioners working in the field of health crisis communication"--cProvided by publisher. 7aCOVID-19 (Disease)xPolitical aspects.2BUEsh  bGGENcMarch2022  vReading book9342321 aLilleker, Darren G.,eeditor.08iOnline version:aElsheikh, Dalia,tPolitical communication and COVID-19dMilton Park, Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2021.z9781003120254w(DLC) 2020047527  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2ddccBB  c29840d29811  00102ddc40708AlahramaMAINbMAINc1STd2022-03-03ePurchaseg759.00h282l0o362.1962414 POLp000056198r2025-07-15 00:00:00v948.75w2022-03-03yBB
