Book Presentation:
This anthology offers a concise but comprehensive theory of propaganda, and employs it to analyze a wide variety of propaganda films. These films range in origin over a full century. We interrogate these films for their rationality. We also examine the ways in which critics of a given piece of propaganda respond to it.
