| Description: |
Traces how propaganda has formed part of the fabric of conflict since the dawn of warfare, and how it has also been part of a process of persuasion at the heart of human communication. This book contains chapters on the Gulf War, information age conflict in the post-Cold War era, and the world after the terrorist attacks of September 11. |
| Synopsis: |
New edition of a classic work on the history of propaganda. Topical new chapters on the 1991 Gulf War, September 11 and terrorism. An ideal textbook for all international courses covering media and communication studies. Considers the history of propaganda and how it has become increasingly pervasive due to access to ever-complex and versatile media. Written in an accessible style and format, this book has proven its appeal to the general reader as the public becomes more and more cynical of the manipulations of the political sphere. -- . |
