The Brussels World's Fair was perhaps the most important propaganda
event to be staged for European allies by the Eisenhower
administration, an administration that viewed culture as a
necessary weapon in the battle against communism. This historical
text examines how film played a pivotal role in the information war
waged against the Soviets in the American pavilion at the fair.
Topics covered include how the administration sought to create a
visual rendition of America that was arresting and inspirational,
and how film was used as a method of political persuasion.
