"In socialist Eastern Europe, radio simultaneously produced state power and created the conditions for it to be challenged.

Listeners' feedback, captured in thousands of pieces of fan mail, shows how a non-democratic society established, stabilized, and reproduced itself.

Red Tape rethinks Stalinism in Czechoslovakia--one of the states in which it was at its staunchest for longest--by showing how, even then, meaningful, multi-directional communication occurred between audiences and state-controlled media.
