Propaganda and War, 1939-1945

Each of the belligerent nations in the Second World War disseminated propaganda as a weapon of war. This volume presents an overview of that dissemination with each chapter representing a different belligerent, and an introductory chapter explaining in general terms the nature and function of war propaganda. Each subsequent chapter provides an overview of the political, military, and ideological structures of the nation covered, and then examines how the propaganda disseminated reflected those structures. The propaganda channels of dissemination also are examined in depth, which provides a comparison of how the belligerents were similar, and sometimes different, in their propaganda approach.
