In this comic-book style, 1975 English translation of the 1971 edition originally published in Chile, the authors attempt to show how Disney comics circulated throughout Latin America at the time were used as propoganda against the revolutionaries.
In addition to in-depth analysis of Disney's motives, it also includes examples of actual comics showing vultures representing Hegel and Marx, dogs dressed up like Che and Castro, and Donald and his friends as heroes who restore power to the king.
"As long as the smiling face of Donald Duck parades innocently throughout Chilean cities, as long as Donald Duck means power and collective representation," the authors state, "then imperialism and the bougeoisie can sleep peacefully."
A fascinating look back into the political mindset of that long-ago era.
