PROPAGANDA DURING
THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION
Learning Objectives: 1) To identify and analyze examples
of Stalin (and his totalitarian government) using propaganda
to spread ideas
2) To analyze popular media advertising for propaganda
techniques and logical fallacies
“ENTRANCE”**Have out your propaganda and fallacies
notes** Given what you know about Joseph
Stalin (and his connection to the character Napoleon):
Write about (with 1-2 sentences each)… 1) How do such corrupt individuals gain the public’s support? 2) What do you think are the most effective persuasion/propaganda techniques and why? 3) What works to convince you personally to believe in something or act a certain way?
NOT I, SAID THE PIG!…We all want to believe that we are individuals,
we think independently, and we are not easily manipulated by those around us…
No one is entirely exempt (free) from outside influences
Certainly during times of war, economic crisis, and government instability… our likelihood of being influenced increases…
Such was the case for those living during the Russian Revolution. People wanted something to believe in! A cause to dedicate themselves to!
So what, do you ask, did Stalin use?
EDUCATION…First and foremost, peasants were
taught the ideals of communism…
How would this work as propaganda?
How can we connect this to Animal Farm?
The woman gestures towards a library, a mensa, a
workers club, a school for adults and a 'house of
mother and child’
What message does this send?
What is this poster working to achieve?
“What the October Revolution has given to working and
peasant women”
***What kind of propaganda technique/logical fallacy is being used here?
“Join the Communist Party!” (1920)
"Without a saw, axe, or nails youcannot build a home. These tools are made by the worker, and he has to be fed" (1920)
How is this propaganda poster working?
But there was also propaganda against the Bolshevik government and later, Stalin…
“The Happy Worker in [the Land of the Soviet Deputies]”
Poster is meant to mock Bolshevik pretensions to be helping the workers they claimed to represent.
“Beloved Stalin – happiness of the
people”
Promoting Stalin’s image, painting him in a positive light
“Long live Stalin!”
THINK ABOUT…
How are these examples similar to and different from the propaganda you created for your project?
Identify modern propaganda. What posters, billboards, and TV commercials do you see around you? What kinds of messages do they send? What logical fallacies do they tend to use?
QUIZ TIME! (KIND OF) Take out a sheet of paper and number it
1-10
Using your propaganda techniques and logical fallacies notes, identify what is being used in the following examples… (Remember, there doesn’t have to be just one)
