> Agitprop (/ˈædʒɪtprɒp/;[1][2][3] from Russian: агитпроп, tr. Agitpróp, portmanteau of agitatsiya, "agitation" and propaganda, "propaganda")[4] is political propaganda, especially the communist propaganda used in Soviet Russia, that is spread to the general public through popular media such as literature, plays, pamphlets, films, and other art forms with an explicitly political message.[5]
