Propaganda and Agitation in the Soviet Military.

摘要

The Soviet Armed Forces constitutes the only potential challenger to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union for leadership power and control. To ensure its domination over the Armed Forces, the Communist Party has instituted a system of political controls (not discussed in this paper) and conducts a widespread campaign of propaganda and agitation. With intensive inputs of sociopolitical and military oriented propaganda and agitation, the Communist Party is creating a political and ideological base for voluntary submission by the masses to its control and domination. The basic aims and methods utilized in the propaganda and agitation campaign are the theme of this paper. (Author)
