Abstract

This work`s aim is to explain how we`ve reached the top of the Propaganda Era. When during the Great War propaganda activity intensified and spread to the extent unseen ever before, "privately owned industry took over war technologies for peacetime use and also adopted war-propaganda methods for peacetime services and production", as Edward Bernays noticed. Such total propaganda, relying on constant combat psychosis, presented a social tool for setting the stage for the Second World War and for raising economic competitiveness, and then it continued its life during the Cold War. Informing citizens thus evolved into - propaganda model. Today, during the Big crisis, when conflicts around the world multiply, propaganda is consuming last oases of the "free journalism", bringing essential human need for the truth to the verge of survival.
