Propaganda Model
What is Propaganda? 
Propaganda is an information that is not 
impartial and used primarily to influence an 
audience and further an agenda, often by 
presenting facts selectively to encourage a 
particular synthesis, or using loaded messages 
to produce an emotional rather than rational 
response to the information presented. 
Propaganda can be used as a form of ideological 
or commercial warfare.
History: 
• Ancient Greek commander Themistocles, in 480 
BCE, used a disinformation campaign to deceive 
his enemy Xerxes into delaying actions. 
Alexander used images of himself on statues, 
monuments and coins as propaganda. Pope 
Urban II used religious propaganda to stir up 
support for the Crusades (12th & 13th centuries). 
From the Napoleonic Wars through the U.S. Civil 
War, propaganda was used extensively and 
effectively. In the 19th century, the political 
cartoon emerged as a very effective form of 
Propaganda.
After the World war I, II the major two ideological system came 
in to ground Capitalism and Communism. 
• Capitalism is an economic system in which 
trade, industry, and the means of production 
are largely or entirely privately owned and 
operated for profit. Central characteristics of 
capitalism include capital accumulation, 
competitive markets and wage labour. In a 
capitalist economy, the parties to a 
transaction typically determine the prices at 
which assets, goods, and services are 
exchanged.
Propaganda Anti Capitalism
• Communism: (from Latin communis – common, 
universal) is a socioeconomic system structured 
upon common ownership of the means of 
production and characterized by the absence of 
social classes, money, and the state; as well as a 
social, political and economic ideology and 
movement that aims to establish this social order. 
The movement to develop communism, in its 
Marxist–Leninist interpretations, significantly 
influenced the history of the 20th century, which 
saw intense rivalry between the states which 
claimed to follow this ideology and their enemies.
• Anti-communist propaganda in a 1947 comic book published by the Catechetical 
Guild Educational Society warning of "the dangers of a Communist takeover".

Propaganda against War on Terror
• “Unfortunately, the Pakistan that Qaid e Azam 
Muhammad Ali Jinnah pursued vanquished with his 
mysterious death. The religious right that opposed the 
creation of Pakistan swiftly moved into the void to 
occupy the ideological space. Military coups with 
religion providing political legitimacy speeded this 
deconstruction. Pakistan’s role as a bulwark against 
communism and the mock Jihad in Afghanistan 
strengthened militants into a formidable private army. 
This indoctrination was filliped by hard-core Islamists 
from world over promptly provided sanctuaries in 
Pakistan for legitimacy. It raised the levels of sectarian/ 
religious intolerance and violence.”
