Marg bar szah! – About Iranian Propaganda Posters from the Point of View of Psychology of Politics

Summary/Abstract: During the Islamic Revolution and the war with Iraq, Iran used propaganda on an unprecedented scale. The dominant form of Iranian persuasion art was posters. So far, they have been analyzed mainly from the point of view of art history, cultural studies, or sociology. In this article, the author aims to study them from the point of view of political science, in particular the psychology of politics and the study of hostility. War and revolution are a period of increased escalation of hostility in the public space. Therefore, sources depicting the enemies of the Islamic Republic of Iran were chosen as the field of analysis. For the sake of clarity, an outline of the history of Iranian propaganda and a theoretical framework for hostility and dehumanization in political science are presented.
