is a wonderful monograph on propaganda. It focuses
on the implementation of imperial power, rather than its
overthrow, but it does address the other part of your
question, viz., the advancement of an agenda.

>From the perspective of social psychology here are two
interesting books:
Robert Cialdini, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion

Revised edition;  New York: Morrow, c1993.



Anthony Pratkanis, Age of Propaganda: The Everyday Use and Abuse of Persuasaion

New York : W.H. Freeman, c1992


These two books focus on the present, but provide
helpful ways to think about how people in the past
might have accomplished their ends. Let me put that another
way. These books provide a way of thinking about rhetoric
that will help you think about how propaganda works.
Could you supply is with the rest of the bibliographic information on these books, please?

Yours,

Jeffrey Gibson
