Summary/Abstract |
Being placed in between low-income and lower-middle-income country
status, Bangladesh aspires to be a developed one by 2041. But there are several
emerging foreign policy challenges for the country. This paper limits its scope to
some specific challenges i.e., soft power diplomacy and image building, trade in
goods and services, attracting foreign direct investment, suiting development
assistance with development priorities, ensuring energy security, developing
transport connectivity, addressing transnational issues like water security and
maritime security, addressing climate change issues and balancing between/
among parties, interests and initiatives. Examining existing literature and
interview transcripts and undertaking interpretative approach, the paper tries
to develop its main argument - economic issues and economic diplomacy
encompassing resource mobilisation will remain crucial to formulate and
implement foreign policy agenda of Bangladesh. In mobilising resources, actors
concerned with foreign policy of Bangladesh need to work at multiple-levels
with proper understanding of internal and external dynamics, policy priorities
of vital countries as well as the organisations and instruments to make the policy
a success.

Summary/Abstract |
Any discourse on International Relations (IR) today never fails to talk about
the Soft Power of countries. Ever since Joseph Nye coined the term, it has
become rather obligatory to use it. It is not as if the aspects of the so-called
Soft Power were never recognised before. Earlier, it was known by other
terms, one of which was cultural and civilisational diplomacy. Countries
projected their cultural and non-transactional sides to get the friendships of
others.

Summary/Abstract |
This article discusses the nexus between comics, collective historical memory and politics in the context of the contemporary relationship between Japan and South Korea by examining the graphic manhwa narratives dealing with the memories of comfort women that were exhibited during the Angoulême Comics Festival in France in early 2014. With a theme of ‘memories of war and gendered violence’, commemorating the centennial of the outbreak of the First World War, the event that accommodated a special exhibition for Korean manhwa attracted controversy because of its political nature, drawing heavy media attention and sparking public debate and diplomatic quarrels. Adding academic depth to this cultural and diplomatic clash by linking the concepts of soft power foreign policy and cultural citizenship, this paper investigates what made the cultural event politically tainted and how the politicisation debate between the two countries escalated throughout the event. Existing studies on soft power foreign policy often leave the core contents of the ‘soft’ part unexplained. This article, in contrast, explores the current limits of accommodating cultural expressions of historical memories through an in-depth analysis of the exhibited artworks and the two countries’ nationalised soft power diplomacy. It argues that both governments’ direct and indirect intervention in the cultural realm nurtured irreconcilable cultural representations in this particular theme and genre of cultural representation under the current research.

Summary/Abstract |
For a nation, Soft power acts as a catalyst for strengthening and building a spectrum of ideology, culture, and institutions. Albeit India has been able to initiate its soft power diplomacy for a long time now, nonetheless, India hasn’t been as successful as it could have been in implementing soft power strategies. It has been essential in helping India make decisions about its foreign policy. In this Review Paper we tried to know the idea of various thinkers, analysts and observers about what soft power is and how is it different from hard power?

Summary/Abstract |
It has always been important to utilize power in international relations. Although hard power dominated the primary process for many years, soft power emerged to explain the complex interactions between states and how states use non-coercive means to influence global actors. Late in the twentieth century, Nye promoted the idea of attraction over assertion. “Soft power” has long been an important diplomatic tool in international relations. In recent years, terror attacks, economic crises, mass migrations, climate change, and infectious diseases like COVID-19 are giving it a new meaning, which may explain why some areas have been successful in managing all issues including the epidemic while others have had difficulty. A crucial indicator of how nations, or regions within them, will perform during economic reopening, especially if they are affected by the unbalanced economic situation, mass migration and additional COVID-19 cases.
