In both a political and commercial context, the use of these individualscontinues to thrive, andalthough the messages they promote have largely changed, their continued use indicates the extent to which they are believed to be an effective form of persuasion. Model Workers were deployed at key points in China's recent history and served to embody the Party's vision of the ideal Chinese citizen as they attempted to reshape the nation following a 'Century of Humiliation,' a ruinous war with Japan and a divisive civil war. This volume utilises the detailed analysis of posters, cinema and translations of related propaganda material to explore the extent ofthe influence of the Model Worker as a concept, on bothpropagandaand national policy. 545 0 James Farley is a specialistin the field of propaganda and modern Chinese history and holds a PhD from the University of Kent, UK. 588 Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 02, 2019). 650 0 Propaganda, Chinese |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 Propaganda, Communist |zChina |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 Citizenship |zChina |xHistory |y20th century. 650 0 Nationalism |zChina |xHistory |y20th century. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010103281 651 0 China |xPolitics and government |y1949-1976. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85024173 650 7 Citizenship. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00861909 650 7 Nationalism. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01033832 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 650 7 Propaganda, Chinese. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01079001 650 7 Propaganda, Communist. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01079003 651 7 China. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 1900-1999 |2fast 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 |iPrint version:Farley, James, 1980- author. |tModel workers in China, 1949-1965 |z9781138299825 |w(DLC) 2019005443 |w(OCoLC)1089282777 830 0 Routledge studies in modern history ; |v54.
