Nazi Wireless Propaganda - Lord Haw-Haw and British Public Opinion in the Second World War

Informationen zum Autor Martin Doherty Klappentext This is the first book devoted exclusively to the analysis of the Nazis' radio effort against the United Kingdom during the Second World War. Propaganda is presented in context: the purposes behind it! the changing patterns! themes! styles! and techniques employed! and the impact upon the target audience and its morale. An analysis of the Nazi wireless broadcasts to Britain for the whole of the Second World War reveals a sophisticated and intelligent propaganda assault on the social and economic fabric of British society. In the end the British failed to succumb to the stupefying effects of Nazi propaganda and they traditionally congratulate themselves upon the national unity which immunised them against it. The author argues that this traditional view disguises a more complex! less appealing reality. Zusammenfassung This is the first book devoted exclusively to the analysis of the Nazis' radio effort against the United Kingdom during the Second World War.
