Based on a study of the effectiveness of propaganda in the Middle East, Lerner's book claimed that exposure to American media messages could motivate "traditional" people in the postcolonial nations to become "modern" by cultivating empathy for American ideas, goods, and ways of life.The Production of Modernization examines Lerner's writings to construct the i 606 $aMass media and culture 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aPolitics and culture 615 0$aMass media and culture. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aPolitics and culture. 676 $a303.48/33 686 $aAP 14000$2rvk 686 $aMS 1170$2rvk 686 $aMS 7850$2rvk 700 $aShah$b Hemant$f1957-$01629552 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813953203321 996 $aThe production of modernization$94002371 997 $aUNINA
