In Unruly Voices, Zhao Ma traces the origins of contemporary China's propaganda apparatus to the Korean War. Often dubbed the Forgotten War by US historians, the Korean War in fact represented a critical turning point in Chinese foreign policy. Not only was the newborn revolutionary state waging war for a new ally, North Korea, but it was also doing so as a new member of the Soviet-led Communist coalition against a new adversary, the United States. For the nascent Chinese government, a critical task was mobilizing the support of its people for the war: curbing historical anti-Korean sentiment, encouraging pro-Soviet collaboration, stoking anti-Americanism.
