Project title: Cold War Journalism: the influence of IFJ and IOJ on the development of "Third World" countries

This project aims to analyse the role played by the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and the International Organisation of Journalists (IOJ) within the dynamics of the Cold War and the impact they had on the development of journalism in the so-called “Third World” countries. The research, therefore, involves a comparative analysis of the operating methodologies of the two associations through the study of the documentary material produced. The time frame of the analysis covers the period immediately following the Second World War, when the two organisations established themselves on the international scene, up to the 1990s, marked by the dissolution of the Soviet Union and subsequently of the IOJ.
