Communication, communication theories, agenda-settingAbstract
Between the 1920s and 1970s, a number of theories related to communication processes were developed that can be grouped generically in several blocks, as suggested by Mauro Wolf: hypodermic or manipulation theory, empirical field and experimental theories, also called of persuasion, functionalist theory, structuralist theory, critical theory - better known as the Frankfurt School, with all its ramifications - culturological theories, cultural studies, communicative theories (mathematical theory, semiotics in a strict sense, due to Umberto Eco, and linguistics), etc.
