Summary / Abstract (Note) | TODAY, THE EXPERT COMMUNITY in Russia, let alone the public, knows next to nothing about NATO information and propaganda efforts while what is called public diplomacy can be described as one of the key aspects of its activities. What Is Public Diplomacy? SO FAR, the world has not agreed on the concept's comprehensive definition and uses several interpretations the earliest being supplied in 1965 by Dean of the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University Edmund A. Gullion: "Public diplomacy refers to government-sponsored programs intended to inform and influence public opinion in other countries." This obviously presupposes that public diplomacy recurs to very specific means and methods to achieve specific aims. I will use this as a starting point for my summary of what has been said about public diplomacy by those who theorize about it and who apply its principles in practice. |
