Abstract
ABSTRACT In Latin America, World War I was mainly perceived as a media event. The propaganda of the belligerents highly contributed to this massive medial outlet. Foreign propaganda did not only publicly debate the advantages and disadvantages of the Latin American States’ political and commercial relations with the conflict parties, but it also added a new dimension to the public discussion of (trans-)national identities, as war propaganda tended to take up ongoing intellectual debates, integrating them into their public narrations. I will demonstrate how German propaganda used different concepts of identity, belonging and difference in Chile and Argentina during WWI in order to establish a persuasive argumentative strategy, that linked diverse political articulations and voices.
