À propos de cet e-book

""FDR Radio Talks"" examines Franklin Delano Roosevelt's innovative use of radio, specifically his ""fireside chats,"" to connect with the American public during the Great Depression and World War II. These broadcasts were more than just presidential addresses; they were carefully constructed to inspire confidence and garner support for the New Deal. Roosevelt masterfully used the emerging medium of mass communication to bridge the gap between the government and the governed, creating a sense of unity and trust during times of crisis.

The book highlights how FDR's rhetorical strategies, including his tone and simple language, shaped public opinion and bolstered national morale. Roosevelt's approach was particularly effective in reassuring citizens during the banking crisis and explaining complex policies in accessible terms. By analyzing transcripts, recordings, and listener responses, the book illustrates the immediate impact of these radio talks on American society and political discourse.

The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the socio-political backdrop of the 1930s and concluding with an assessment of the long-term impact of fireside chats on presidential communication and American political culture. This exploration also acknowledges the criticisms and controversies surrounding Roosevelt's policies, offering a balanced perspective on his complex legacy and his lasting influence on American politics.
