Which is the best explanation for the use of propaganda in public health campaigns?

Answers

During the second half of the twentieth Century, Public Relations have become a professional activity whose history, at least with regard to the Anglo-Saxon world, has been, in essence, well reported by authors like Scott Cutlip (1999) and Jacquie L' Etang (2004). Still little known or available only in fragments, in contrast, is the history of the political reactions to its appearance and intervention in society (see although ST. JOHN III, 2010). The criticisms and objections to the practice of Public Relations are ancient and originate from various fields of social life. Despite this, they do not attracted enough attention from researchers of this area in itself (exception is Moloney, 2006) or, when it happened, the study was limited to a structural approach (as we may see with the pioneering work of PERUZZO, 1982).

Hi, please, help me. I'm french.Thank you very muchMy ancestors: a project by Ben Winterhayes, Applewood School, Sydney, New South Wales.I am very proud of one of my ancestors, John Winterhayes. He arrived on a ship from England in 1820. He was a criminal! Well, not exactly a criminal. This is his story:John was born in London. His father died when he was 13 years old. His family were very poor and often hungry. One cold winter’s day, he stole some food in the market because he was very hungry.John was caught and brought before a magistrate. In those days the British used to send their prisoners to Australia. New South Wales was a prison colony and John was sent there for seven years.At that time the journey to Australia was very difficult. The journey took at least three months.There were often bad storms and there wasn’t much food for the prisoners. Sometimes the weather was very hot and sometimes very cold. The prisoners were often sick and sometimes died before they arrived in Australia.My ancestor John never returned to England again. He never saw his mother, or his little brothers and sisters, again. But he met a girl called Heather MacMaster and they got married in Sydney in 1830.That’s the story of one of my ancestors!Read the story of Ben’s ancestor.John Winterhayes wrote a letter to his mother when he arrived in New South Wales.Imagine the letter he wrote to her. You must mention:a)his feelings when he left Englandb)how long the journey tookc)the weather, the food, other problemsd)his feelings during the journeye)arriving in Australia.Don’t forget to start and end the letter correctly
