Propaganda

The Formation of Men's Attitudes

Jacques Ellul

This thought-provoking work explores the destructive impact of propaganda on democracy and humanity in the modern world. Using the logical approach that is characteristic of French thought, the author delves into the thesis that propaganda- whether its aims are good or bad- is perhaps the gravest threat to human society. The book presents a catalog of horrors that reveals how propaganda seizes and influences individuals, making them willing dupes in democracies, especially when they are educated for their role as such.
