Synopsis

Cultural Diplomacy: Issues and Perspectives features carefully selected readings and engaging learning activities that inspire creative thinking about cultural encounters. It frames cultural diplomacy as a vital 21st century phenomenon, presents readers with recent scholarship in the field, and underscores the importance of cultural intelligence in the context of international diplomacy.

Opening chapters offer a definition of cultural diplomacy and explore the development of culture programs, as well as the discord in such programs. Readers then learn about soft power, how to understand cultural patrimony, and how to develop the skillsets needed to demystify cultural encounters. Short articles by two veteran practitioners of cultural diplomacy distinguish this anthology. Each chapter enhances a specific skill and is organized around chapter objectives, a narrative introduction, selected articles, questions for reflection, suggested learning activities, and further reading.

Created to foster critical thought in the field, Cultural Diplomacy is an exemplary resource for courses and programs in international relations.
