Propaganda is a specific type of message presentation aimed at serving an agenda. At its root, the denotation of propaganda is 'to propagate (actively spread) a philosophy or point of view'.
Each of the nations which participated in World War One from 1914-18 used propaganda posters.
They used posters to:• justify their involvement
to their own populace• As a means of recruiting
men• A way to raise money
and resources to sustain the military campaign.
• To urge conservation
Television had not yet been invented
Not everyone owned or had access to a radio
Posters were the most effective means of getting a message across
Quite often propaganda is connected with negative emotions
During the Great War the governments needed money for the war effort so they focused their efforts on posters aimed at raising money from citizens for the war effort

From a population of only 11.5 million, slightly more than one million Canadians served in uniform during the conflict.
These military contributions helped win the war, but the cost was high: more than 42,000 Canadians lost their lives, and another 55,000 were wounded.
News about the war was generally received from such sources as radio, newspapers, magazines, and newsreels
The Canadian government campaign to stimulate support for the war amongst Canadians. They used war posters to recruit, to encourage wartime productivity and to raise money through Victory Bonds

In the 1950’s, communism was not an imagined enemy, it had concrete shape in the form of the Soviet Union.
Many hindrances were encountered in America’s fight against communism:
The Korean deadlock The defeat of China The development of the Atomic bomb by the
Soviets
People were searching for somebody to blame
State and local governments, the judiciary, schools and universities, labor unions .
Not only was the fear of communism in the air, but also the fear of being suspected of ties with communists.
