Usually, when we hear about World War II, the first thing that comes to mind is: concentration camps, Nazis, Hitler, atomic bombs, blood and destruction; Although all these elements frame the struggle that represents a before and after in humanity, the important factors to maintain the course of the attacks were different. One of them was the battle that the countries involved had with the positions of their population in the face of the conflict, which kept them in a constant effort to keep the heart and mind of the people in victory. Thus, persuading citizens to support the war effort became such an important issue as the production of bullets and airplanes. The objective of propaganda during the war was to expose beliefs with the intention of influencing and convincing the audience, through constant messages, that war was the best and only solution to the world situation. Adopting this belief as their own, and thus rejecting other points of view, posters, brochures, news, radio programs and films were the means on which governments relied to achieve their goal.

All possible help was requested to continue and, of course, win the war, prompting the population to make an extra effort and work harder; the children kept pennies, collected scrap and food waste to be prevented if there was any contingency. With so many men enlisted in the Forces, millions of women worked in factories, buses, trains, hospitals and schools. That is why it is common to find propaganda focused on them, on children and on people who did not go to the battlefield; From the British Political Warfare Executive (PWE), the different Russian newspapers or such iconic elements as “Rosie, the Riveter” of the Office of War Information (OWI), played a key role in continuing the national and economic complications caused by the war in the participating countries.

INTRODUCTION

With the attack by Japan on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the United States found itself suddenly involved in a war that was raging across nearly every continent of the globe. As the American military ramped up its war effort, support from the American public became crucial. The need for more soldiers, more factory production, more government funds, and less consumption by civilians of crucial war resources led to a public propaganda campaign. In an age before the widespread use of television the two best ways to reach the public were radio broadcasts and print. President Roosevelt was a pioneer in using the radio to sway public opinion, and soon colorful posters promoting the requirements of the war effort began appearing all over the United States.

INTRODUCTION

The development of posters to promote American patriotism during World War II is an example of propaganda. Propaganda is a form of communication that usually bypasses the intellect and motivates a target group by appealing to their emotions. The posters developed for the home front during World War II were designed to motivate American citizens and develop a sense of patriotism that would turn the United States into an unstoppable war machine. These posters called on all Americans to be part of the war effort, not just by carrying a gun into battle, but in many other important ways. Government programs such as metal and rubber drives may not have meant the difference between winning or losing the war, but the camaraderie and sense of unity generated by such drives was very important to the war effort.
