转一段对二战中日本宣传海报的评价: Japanese propaganda posters of World War II are distinguished by their artistic quality and their lack of coherent messages. The Japanese propaganda posters do not try to tell people how to act or how to feel, they don't ask men to enlist, they don't tell people to Keep Calm and Carry On. Rather, the Japanese posters portray symbols of national pride and commitment. Apparently, and probably quite correctly, the authorities believed that the Japanese people already were completely committed. This was not a bad assumption, as Japan easily was the most homogeneous of the major powers during the war, and the absolute loyalty of its citizens was pretty much a given. 第二次世界大战的日本宣传海报以其艺术品质和缺乏连贯的信息而著称。 日本的宣传海报并不试图告诉人们如何做事或如何感受,他们不要求男人入伍,也不告诉人们保持冷静和坚持下去。 相反,日本的海报描绘了许多民族自豪感和奉献精神的象征。 显然,这种策略很可能是正确的,当局相信日本人民已经完全投入了战争。 这不是随便猜测,因为日本在战争期间是大国中最同质的国家,而且拥有公民的绝对忠诚度。
