This is the first broad-ranging, comprehensive and comparative
study of the concepts of propaganda and neutrality. Bringing
together world-leading and early career historians, this open
access book explores case studies from the time of the First World
War to the end of the Cold War in countries such as Belgium,
Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Switzerland, Vichy France, USA,
Argentina, Turkey, Portuguese Macau, Brazil, South Africa, Laos,
Yugoslavia, Egypt, India, Malta, and Sweden. The individual
chapters analyse the methods and channels of propaganda utilised in
neutral countries, including rumours, newspapers, cartoons, films,
pamphlets and magazines as well as radio broadcasts, official
reports, diplomatic movements, cultural campaigns and soft power.
They look to understand how these methods and channels have been
deployed and how effective they have been in changing or
reinforcing opinions and outcomes. Finally the book highlights the
interaction between the concepts of propaganda and neutrality. It
considers whether neutrality is a form of propaganda in itself,
whether it is possible to be truly neutral in any propaganda battle
and how the different forms of neutrality, including projected
strict neutrality, non-belligerency and non-alignment, have been
utilised by neutrals and belligerents to achieve propaganda goals
in the last 120 years. The ebook editions of this book are
