State management of the press – emerging issues in the new era of development

Abstract: State management of the press plays a crucial role in orienting, organizing, and supervising journalistic activities to ensure that the press fulfills its functions effectively. In the new era of development characterized by breakthroughs in digital technology, globalization, and significant shifts in audience information consumption behavior amid the vigorous growth of the market economy, state management of the press in Vietnam faces both great opportunities and numerous challenges. While many studies have discussed opportunities, this article focuses on analyzing the key challenges and emerging issues confronting state management of the press today and proposes several solutions to enhance the quality and effectiveness of press governance in this new era of development.

Abstract: This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the historical foundations and ideological structure shaping the foreign policy of the Cuban Revolution, emphasizing its continuity with the nation’s long struggle for independence and sovereignty. From the legacy of the Mambí Army, the republican resistance, and José Martí’s ideal of national unity, Cuban diplomacy first emerged as a tool to seek recognition from the Latin American community. After the January 1959 Revolution, this policy was systematically consolidated, oriented toward building an independent, sovereign diplomacy grounded in the core principles of international law, such as non-interference, sovereign equality, peace promotion, and solidarity for development. Influenced by Marxist thought and Cuba’s unique geostrategic position, the country became an active player in international affairs, including the Missile Crisis, the Non-Aligned Movement, and solidarity campaigns in Africa, Latin America, and Asia. The study particularly underscores the central role of Cuba’s struggle against the U.S. economic and financial blockade—a policy that has caused severe harm to the Cuban people’s livelihood. The article also highlights Cuba’s consistent foreign policy positions on the global stage: rejecting all forms of hegemony and intervention, demanding the return of Guantánamo, safeguarding sovereignty, and advocating for a multipolar, fair, and democratic world order.
