Within this study, the words “family” and “children” were focused on throughout the forums of Inaugural, State of the Union, Primetime, and Farewell addresses to the nation. Through tracking the prevalence of these terms and the reasons for their usage throughout the collected addresses, it has become clear that incorporating familial terms into presidential rhetoric is a dominant strategy used to engage the nation and connect with American families. 3 The word “family” is both comprehensive and far-reaching. Families today are diverse in nature while significant in purpose. It is because of these qualities that many U.S. presidents highlight the efforts, importance and strengths of the American family in their rhetoric. Throughout presidential discourse, specifically in the ritually formalized State of the Union, Inaugural, and Farewell addresses, along with the more informal and time- specific Primetime addresses, families are highlighted as a strategic means in order to instil a connection between the seemingly isolated president and the ordinary people.

Who can deny that the Geneva conferu1cc, wbich brought to- gether President Eisenhower, Prerniws Bulganin and Fame and Prime Minister Eden, cast a light which pierced the darkness of "the &Id War"? Estimates vary about how much was actually achieved by the Big Four wn£erence. Some might dispute a headlint in tht Daily S&ch, of London, after the conference: REJOICEI THE DAYS OF WAR ARE PASTI But even the cautious statement of President Eisenhower on his return from Geneva, said: "There is evidence of a new frien&incss in the world." He added something that is quite new for the Ad- ministration-that any negotiations must involve mutual concessions. British Foreign Minister Harold Maurnillan said jovially when he was back in London: "There sin? gmna be any war." French Premier Faure said the codrenee "will have a happy influence" on future events.

  • Propaganda, Information and Psychological Warfare: Cold War and Hot
    PROPAGANDA, INFORMATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WARFARE: COLD WAR AND HOT A List of Holdings Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library Page 1 of 69 Page 2 of 69 Compiled by: David J. Haight April 2008 INTRODUCTION Such terms as “information,” “political warfare,” “propaganda,” “psychological strategy,” and “psychological warfare” are frequently used, often interchangeably, but are difficult to define. In preparing this guide, the Library staff recognizing this difficulty, have, therefore, interpreted the meanings of these related words broadly to cover actions, activities, symbols, thoughts, beliefs and media aimed at influencing public opinion at home and abroad. Efforts to “win the hearts and minds” of people have been attempted through many means including such conventional methods as radio and television broadcasts, public speeches, leaflets, newspapers, and the like. In addition, these efforts have covered such things as trade fairs, cultural diplomacy (a term which may itself mean different things to different people), the People-to-People program as well as actions of governments themselves and developments within countries. For example, efforts to restore and protect civil rights for minority groups within the United States certainly had and continue to have an impact on opinion at home and abroad. Wide use of labels such as “Free World,” is, itself, a form of propaganda intended to influence particular audiences. One of the best known “psychological warriors,” C.D. Jackson, pointed out that psychological warfare (or any of its related terms) cannot be separated from the actions of the sponsoring entity (in Jackson’s case and in most instances listed herein, the United States Government). Instead, each policy implemented or action taken by the government has an impact on national and/or international opinion.

  • Major Conflicts After WWII and Attempts to Make Peace – Origin, Features and Development of the Cold War
    History (S4-5) Theme B: Conflicts and Cooperation in the Twentieth-Century World Sub-theme d: Major conflicts and the quest for peace Content focus 2: Major conflicts after WWII and attempts to make peace – origin, features and development of the Cold War Q.1 Study Sources A and B carefully. Source A The following extract is cited from the minutes of a meeting of the British War Cabinet in March 1919. Mr. Churchill, continuing, said that the War Cabinet must face the fact that the North of Russia would be over-run by the Bolsheviks, and many people would be murdered. He was increasingly distressed with the way the situation had developed since the Armistice. Everything was going wrong. The continued disheartening of the Russian forces friendly to us had led to a great falling off in their morale. When firing stopped (at the end of the First World War), the Ukraine was occupied by the Germans. We requested them to withdraw, but we put in no Allied force there, and now that area, rich in food, was in the hands of the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks were taking Nicholiev and Kherson, and were advancing on the Black Sea. Odessa might soon be invested [captured]. Four months had passed in a policy of drift, and great potential resources which might have helped us were being dissipated. It was idle to think we should escape by sitting still and doing nothing. Bolshevism was not sitting still. It was advancing, and unless the tide were resisted it would roll over Siberia until it reached the Japanese, and perhaps drive Denikin into the mountains, while the border Baltic states would be attacked and submerged.
