THE VISUALIZATION OF HATE SPEECHES IN WARTIME PROPAGANDA POSTERS

Abstract

Propaganda posters were extremely influential in maintaining national pride and solidarity during World War I and II while also establishing cultural norms for wartime practices. This article explores the visual impact of propaganda posters during World War I and World War II, with a focus on those that included racist elements. Design elements and principles are key components of graphic design that are used to support conveying a message to the viewer, such as; colour, typography, composition, hierarchy. By analysing the visual and textual components of these posters, the article argues that they had a significant impact on shaping society's perception of the enemy and fuelling xenophobic attitudes. The posters served as a powerful tool for governments to convey their messages to the masses, using emotionally charged language and images to elicit strong reactions from viewers. The research also highlights the ways in which these posters perpetuated harmful stereotypes and contributed to the dehumanization of entire groups of people. By examining the historical and cultural contexts in which these posters were created and disseminated, the article underscores the need to be mindful of the power of visual propaganda and its lasting impact on social attitudes and beliefs. In the research process, primary and secondary sources were utilized and historical method and text analysis method were used.
