Propaganda – Book Summary and Analysis

by | Aug 12, 2020

Lacking the direct test of success or failure, the voter tends to turn, not to those politicians whose policies have the best chance of success, but to those who can best “sell” their propaganda ability. Without grasping logical chains of deduction, the average voter will never be able to discover the errors that his ruler makes.

Murray N. Rothbard
Man, Economy, and State with Power and Market, p. 887

 

One of the most vital struggles in the writing and publishing of history is the conflict between the government’s propaganda myths, enshrined in “official history,” and historical reality brought forward by “revisionism.”

Murray N. Rothbard

Left and Right, p. 231

Edward Louis Bernays was an Austrian-American pioneer in the field of public relations and propaganda, referred to in his New York Times obituary as “the father of public relations” Bernays was named one of the 100 most influential Americans of the 20th century by Life Magazine.
