The audience is the fundamental part of the communication cycle. The audience cannot be ruled out in the scope of study in any research whether it is the research into sender, message, method, or effectiveness of communication. However, there has not been adequate attention to the role of the audience in communication research. This article analyzes the position of the audience in research with the view to enhance the theoretical foundation for research into the audience of journalism and mass communication.

Foreign policy of the Cuban revolution: a legacy of resilience

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.

Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming one of the key technologies profoundly transforming many areas of socio-economic life, including journalism. With its superior ability to collect, analyze, and process data, AI opens up significant opportunities to innovate methods of producing, distributing, and accessing information. For Vietnamese journalism, leveraging the power of AI is not only an inevitable trend but also a strategic solution to keep pace with the times, improve the quality of information, and serve the public more effectively.
