Radio Diplomacy and Propaganda investigates the role of international radio broadcasting in diplomacy during the Cold War period and, in particular, the contribution of the BBC and the Voice of America in the construction and projection of foreign policy, together with their role in the dissemination of international propaganda.

This volume concerns the origins, organisation and method of British, American and Soviet propaganda during the 1950s.

How do governments that do not enjoy formal diplomatic relations use propaganda? For such actors, propaganda can become diplomacy out of necessity. It discusses the relationship between diplomacy and propaganda from an exciting new perspective, illustrated by a fascinating case-study.
