WORLD-INFOSTRUCTURE > FACT AND OPINION CONSTRUCTION(THINK TANKS) > DISSEMINATION STRATEGIES

Dissemination Strategies Think tanks undertake research in very specific public policy areas. Which topics they cover mainly depends on their political and ideological orientation. In any case think tanks produce incredible amounts of "research findings". The crucial aspect usually is not their production, but their distribution. Therefore most think tanks have developed sophisticated dissemination strategies, whose main aim is the communication of their ideas to important audiences. These include members of governmental institutions, policymakers in the executive branch, news media, intellectuals, business men as well as academic and policy communities - in short, everybody, who is involved in shaping public opinion. browse Report: Fact and opinion construction(think tanks)     Think Tanks  ... -3   Major U.S. Think Tanks: American Enterprise Institute -2   Major U.S. Think Tanks: Cato Institute -1   Major U.S. Think Tanks: RAND Corporation 0   Dissemination Strategies +1   Publishing Programs +2   Table: Publishing Programs of Think Tanks +3   Educational Programs      ...
