Thanks to cultural matrix, it is possible to discuss the points of culture within the general theory of PR. Besides, this matrix demonstrates how it would be possible to establish and maintain public relations irrespective of changes occurring in culture. The authors come to the conclusion that public relations can meet the highest standards even under authoritarian societal culture if the management of company contributes to development of democratic organizational culture.
