In 2019, in Nikšić, published by Media Culture, within the library of Media Theory, edited by prof. Dr. Ratko Bozovic, a new book "Media and Geopolitics", by historian and doctor of political science Radenko Šćekić, has been published.

The book is conceived in ten chapters of the main text, with preface, conversation, lexicon of terms and literature. The book's reviewers are academician Đorđe Borozan and prof. Čedomir Čupić, PhD, who emphasized that “the book Media and Geopolitics by Radenko Šćekić is a significant contribution to the study of the role of media in contemporary societies and the impact of media on social and political relations. This study is an example of a systematic and comprehensive approach to media relations as a tool for geopolitical purposes, especially in the hands of powerful actors in the political life of the planet. A particular virtue of the author's approach to processing media use for geopolitical purposes is interdisciplinarity.” The book is full of examples and sources and contains over 1,000 footnotes on nearly 400 pages.

The study of the relationship between media and geopolitics, their interconnection and use, given the comprehensiveness of the phenomena analyzed - represents a multidisciplinary approach to complex categories, such as information, space and time. It is pointed out to the mass media that they have become a powerful tool, though the image of the power of journalists is glorified. The author himself points out that in the sphere of politics: “who controls the production and dissemination of information - has dominance over politics, ideology, and culture.” The media have long ceased to be mere transmitters of information. Today, they are shaping public opinion.
