Abstract

Propaganda has shaped the world over the years. It has also evolved according to the differences of ideologies that have changed and strengthened over the years. Modern propaganda has been evolving towards modernization before the 60's and heavily influenced by great wars. Strong propaganda techniques, which are mostly shaped around leaders and ideologies, started to be shaped around civil right movements and the power of the world press, especially after the 60s ( after the Great Wars ). Modern propaganda, which evolved with the developing technology, started to show its effect with the masses on a global scale. Today, modern propaganda, which is now completely global, has a very strong impact on people with some methods such as cinema, media and organizations worldwide.
