Propaganda in the Polish People's Republic

Summary

Communist propaganda played an important role in the Polish People's Republic, one of the largest and most important satellite states of the Soviet Union following WWII. Together with the use of force and terror it was instrumental in keeping the country's communist government in power and was designed to shape Polish society into a communist one.[1]

A post-WWII Polish communist propaganda poster showing a giant soldier of the communist Armia Ludowa armed resistance organization striding over a little soldier of the Armia Krajowa (anti-Nazi military organization in reality much larger the "Armia Ludowa," but loyal to the non-communist Polish government-in-exile), stating: "The Giant and the drooling reactionary dwarf."

Starting from the 1970s, Polish propaganda was significantly altered and then dominated by the form known as "propaganda of success".
