Lupo non mangia lupo. La nascita delle istituzioni europee nelle riviste satiriche sovietiche

[Machine translation] This article is an analysis of the caricatures of the various European organizations (ECSC, EEC, Euratom, etc.) published in the two largest satirical newspapers of the Soviet Union, Krokodil (in Russian) and Perec (in Ukrainian). The exhibition reveals the particular reading that was given to these organizations, always presented as a project of the USA and functional to their imperialism. This reading, moreover, corresponds essentially to the reading that Soviet politicians gave of European institutions and their subsequent refusal to recognize them and enter into agreements. In the cartoons you can see how this political judgment is transmitted and popularized (also linked to the memory of Nazi Germany and more).
