Produktbeschreibung

The Second World War had an enormous impact on the establishment of modern mass media. Accordingly, the South African Government used miscellaneous media for distributing pro-government propaganda after it had declared war on Germany in September 1939. With examples from film, radio and print material this study examines trans- and intermedia relations and evince the interaction of media and society structures. The way media contributed to the legitimization of the colonial order within the segregated South African society was an advantage for the nationalist opposition. Their victory of the general election 1948 paved the way for implementing the system of Apartheid.
