Abstract
Propaganda can be defined as one-way communications designed by their sponsors — states or other powerful groups — to persuade large numbers of people to think and act in line with the sponsors’ preferences. From a democratic perspective, propaganda is most problematic when its sponsors simultaneously use coercion to dominate public discourse.
