Historical context: Made in 1952 for Chinese-speaking audiences in Southeast Asia, this U.S. Information Service poster shows a Stalin-like figure in a red uniform forcing a frightened student to study communist books. The Chinese headline reads "Soviet communism threatens education" – a theme the United States used widely in Asia as it competed with the Soviet Union and China for the loyalty of young people.
