Comprehensive and well-structuredFebruary 8, 2006 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
Throughout interdisciplinary analysis of 'Propaganda' phenomenon. Rare of its kind. Systematic overview, not like many other texts, that are written around curious case studies or around classical rhetorics. Gives perspectives of many aspects (incl. myth-building, martyrdom etc) from point of view of different social sciences paradigmas. Why only 4 stars? In some places (examples) author lacks awareness of actual historic events. Say - is himself seduced by propaganda.
