British Propaganda and Wars of Empire cover

In order to provide a better understanding of the shifting nature of influence, this volume looks at how the British government employed various forms of persuasion to achieve its goals across the twentieth century. The collection provides a range of case studies to assess how effectively - or ineffectively - influence was brought to bear on an array of non-western societies. This volume will be of interest not only to historians, but to anyone interested in the operation of influence as a foreign policy tool.

’...the volume makes a good contribution to our understanding of British influence, and, by means of considering the volume’s shortcomings and its achievements, it ought to encourage historians to do more to tackle this important topic.’ Twentieth Century British History
