Resumo

This article provides an exhaustive analysis of the emerging digital political communication strategies in a seldom-studied area: the Portuguese-speaking world. Through a literature review and content analysis, 25 political parties from five countries and three different continents are studied. The results confirm emerging trends common to other recently analyzed places, such as innovation in digital storytelling, platformization and the trend towards engagement as communicative interaction. However, there are new trends toward instant messaging, podcasting, audience segmentation and engagement linked to the fight against fake news.
