The Political re-education of Germany & her allies after World War II

the long version

"To 're-educate' the vanquished powers into feeling a common bond with their conquerors instead of revenge was one of the boldest and most imaginative policies in history for securing lasting peace. Never before had a group of nations attempted the wholesale psychological, cultural and ideological reconstruction of other equally developed and prosperous nations. Although the word was publicly avoided, it represented one of the most sophisticated and extensive deployments of the concepts and techniques of propaganda developed since the First World War."--Book Jacket.
