Noting the effectiveness of propaganda efforts during wartime, Bernays became interested in applying these techniques during times of peace. Influenced as much by Lippmann as by the ideas about the roles played by subconscious impulses and desires in determining human behavior being promulgated by his uncle Sigmund at the time, Bernays published a book in called Crystallizing Public Opinion.
Today, this book is regarded as the foundational text of the public relations discipline. But where Lippmann yearned to apply this despotism to the success of American-style democracy, Bernays followed the money. By combining the techniques of propaganda with the principles of psychoanalysis, Bernays effectively created the disciplines of advertising and corporate brand management. He understood how desire or fear, or any other emotion, for that mater could be manufactured by distorting and manipulating reality, accentuating certain elements while suppressing others in order to push the right subconscious buttons to create the desired effect.
