Schleyer als Gefangener der RAF, die Trümmer der PanAm-Boeing im schottischen Lockerbie, die brennenden Türme des World Trade Centers – Bilder, die sich ins kollektive Gedächtnis eingebrannt haben. Terroranschläge gelten nie nur den Opfern, sie zielen auf die jeweilige Gesellschaft. Es gehört zum Wesen des Terrors, mit minimalem Aufwand maximalen Schrecken zu verbreiten. Dabei sind die Attentäter auf die Massenmedien angewiesen. Öffentlichkeit als Lebenselixier des Terrorismus, das ist das Thema von »Propaganda der Tat«. Andreas Elter erörtert zentrale Begriffe, gibt einen Überblibk über die Geschichte der Theorie und der Praxis des Terrorismus und untersucht anhand zum Teil bisher unveröffentlichter Dokumente die Medienstrategie der RAF. So entwickelt er eine Theorie zunm Verhältnis von Terror und Massenmedien.

This book offers a unique account of British and United States government's attempts to adapt their propaganda strategies to global terrorist threats in a post-9/11 media environment. It discusses Anglo-American coordination and domestic struggles that brought in far-reaching changes to propaganda. These changes had implications for the structures of legitimacy yet occurred largely in isolation from public debate and raise questions regarding their governance. The author argues that independent and public reexamination of continuing strategy development is essential for government accountability and the formation of systems and policies that both respect citizens and build constructive foreign relations. The book's themes will appeal to a wide readership including scholars and professionals. It draws on illuminating interviews with high-profile British/US sources including journalists, PR professionals and key foreign policy, defence and intelligence personnel.

Die Kultur der Lüge entstand als Reaktion auf den Zerfall Jugoslawiens, auf den unseligen Krieg in Kroatien wie in Bosnien. Die Essays analysieren, was in Ex-Jugoslawien geschieht: Aggression gegen den eigenen »Bruder«; künstlich herbeigeführte Amnesie; Rekurs auf nationalfaschistische Ideologien; Propaganda und Zensur; Folklorekitsch als Kultur der Lüge; Schriftsteller und Intellektuelle im Strudel des Nationalismus."

This is the first book-length analysis of exhibitions used for propaganda and political interventions in Britain during the two decades from 1933. It analyses how exhibitions were mounted in public places - from station concourses to workers' canteens, empty shops and bombsites - becoming a key tool for public communication. Richly illustrated, the book extends our existing knowledge of the work of a range of prominent artists, architects and designers active in Britain, including Edith Tudor-Hart, Edward McKnight-Kauffer, Paul Nash, F. H. K. Henrion, Misha Black, John Heartfield, Oskar Kokoschka and Erno Goldfinger.

Citizenship, nation, empire investigates the extent to which popular imperialism influenced the teaching of history between 1870 and 1930. It is the first book-length study to trace the substantial impact of educational psychology on the teaching of history, probing its impact on textbooks, literacy primers and teacher-training manuals. Educationists identified 'enlightened patriotism' to be the core objective of historical education. This was neither tub-thumping jingoism, nor state-prescribed national-identity teaching, but rather a carefully crafted curriculum for all children which fused civic as well as imperial ambitions. The book will be of interest to those studying or researching aspects of English domestic imperial culture, especially those concerned with questions of childhood and schooling, citizenship, educational publishing and anglo-British relations. Given that vitriolic debates about the politics of history teaching have endured into the twenty-first century, Citizenship, nation, empire is a timely study of the formative influences that shaped the history curriculum in English schools

Designed to introduce the student or general reader to a largely unfamiliar area of Elizabethan theatrical activity, Five Elizabethan progress entertainments focuses on a group of entertainments mounted for the monarch in the closing years of her reign. Richly annotated, and prefaced by a substantial introduction, the texts enable an understanding of the motives underlying not only the progress itself, but the choice of locations the monarch elected to visit and the personal and political preoccupations of those with whom she determined to stay. Selected for their diversity, the entertainments exhibit the tensions underlying some royal visits, the lavish expenditure entailed for the monarch's hosts and the overlap in terms of both material and authorship between the progress entertainments and the more widely studied products of the sixteenth-century stage.

This book looks at London's provision of financial and military support for parliament's war against King Charles I. It explores for the first time a series of episodic, circumstantial and unique mobilisations that spanned from late 1641 to early 1645 and which ultimately led to the establishment of the New Model Army. Based on research from two-dozen archives, Civil war London charts the successes and failures of efforts to move London's vast resources and in the process poses a number of challenges to longstanding notions about the capital's 'parliamentarian' makeup. It reveals interactions between London's Corporation, parochial communities and livery companies, between preachers and parishioners and between agitators, propagandists and common people. Within these tangled webs of political engagement reside the untold stories of the movement of money and men, but also of parliament's eventual success in the English Civil War.
