In the context of the Cold War, where espionage, nuclear threats and political polarization were part of everyday life, the role of the media became more critical than ever.

Professor of International Relations at the Universidad Pontificia Comilla José Manuel Sáenz explains that in an environment where every word could have global repercussions, the management of information is crucial in preserving world order.
