Izani Mustafá's work, titled “The political use of radio by the dictators Getúlio Vargas and António Salazar – 1930-1945”, presents a detailed comparative analysis in five chapters of the role of radio as a propaganda tool in the authoritarian regimes of Vargas (Brazil) and Salazar (Portugal). The book, published in 2024 by Insular Publishing, is based on the author's doctoral thesis and offers a robust work that combines the rigor of historical research with a critical approach to media control mechanisms in dictatorial regimes.
