I think your research would be very important and useful. I think there are many gender issues involved as well e.g. the people who take on these jobs, is there a 'feminisation'of the positions? and what are the class positions of the PR approach. <BR/><BR/>Are the meessages gendered and 'raced,e.g. How do PR persons representation of themselves a response to certain class issues around dress and 'hair' etc..<BR/><BR/>Also the question of charity and PR vs, community empowerment and CSR.<BR/><BR/>What of CSR to their own staff and workers, relationships with trade unions for example ...<BR/><BR/>There are many issues you can address here.<BR/><BR/>Also are local PR communicators sometimes compromised or challenged in their responsibility to the company and to their country/communities?<BR/><BR/>Good luck, I look forward to seeing your thesis.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28872687.post-1148983850267711502006-05-30T03:10:00.000-07:002006-05-30T03:10:00.000-07:00Hi karel,<BR/><BR/>Great cheers for Ur BLOG!<BR/><BR/>I think its no problem at all where you'll do Ur thesis as long as the source is ready. <BR/><BR/>Well,I've got the same problem, there is no study at all about PR practice in my place, Bali, indonesia. I should be sure that PR is extensively practiced in tourism and in bali as well, but no academic research has been done on it. So, I have to dig the onlien source up of how tourism practitioners use PR in their daily life.<BR/><BR/>Besides talking about PR (its boring, sometimes) I'd rather concentrate on the up coming world cup as Trin Tobbago is heading there captained by Dwight Yorke (I support him, i used to watch him when he was in MUfc).<BR/><BR/>Good Luck 4 ur research<BR/><BR/>kadek, Putrakadek Putrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17913601825923539725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28872687.post-1148941893217574202006-05-29T15:31:00.000-07:002006-05-29T15:31:00.000-07:00You should read Emmanuel Appodocca: A Blighted Life....it was a really good read, and the lesson thought was a good one.Jenileenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28872687.post-1148922880372057672006-05-29T10:14:00.000-07:002006-05-29T10:14:00.000-07:00Dear Karel,<BR/>Greetings!<BR/>Yeah, Elizabeth Nunez is a great writer.
