Summary: | The complexity and rise of the awareness of the importance of propaganda in
the Second World War, alongside improvements in the means of mass
communication, influenced the emergence of institutional propaganda actions
of the wartime collaborationist regime in the territory of occupied Serbia.
The paper is primarily based on archive material from the Military Archives
of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Serbia. It also includes an
analysis of the methods and models of the propaganda collaborationist
administration and its representatives in the period of the Council of
Commissars, as well as the “Government of National Salvation” during the
entire period of occupation. It describes the formation and work of the
Section for State Propaganda and its connection with the German propaganda
machine, in addition to highlighting some peculiarities of the propaganda
placed in the public of the occupied Serbia. |
