Abstract


The aim of this paper is to define how the City of Niš (the birthplace of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great) plans to prepare for the celebration of the 1700 th anniversary of the Edict of Milan. This will be a  great test of efficiency for the public policy. This paper will try to detect media frameworks through which the importance of certain subjects about public policy of the City of Niš is emphasized. This policy is directly related to preparation in different public sectors, especially in tourism and culture. As a  methodological approach, we applied content analysis in order to achieve this detection.

Keywords
