This book explores the phenomenon of soft power in international
relations. In the context of current discourses on power and global
power shift s, it puts forward a comprehensive taxonomy of soft
power and outlines a methodological roadmap for its empirical
study. To that end, the book classifies soft power into distinct
components - resources, instruments, reception, and outcomes - and
identifies relevant indicators for each of these categories.
Moreover, the book integrates previously neglected aspects into the
concept of soft power, including the significance of (political)
personalities. A broad range of historical examples is drawn upon
to illustrate the effects of soft power in international relations
in an innovative and analytically differentiated way. A central
methodological contribution of this book consists in highlighting
the value of comparative-historical analysis (CHA) as a promising
approach for empirical analyses of the soft power of different
actors on the international stage. By introducing a comprehensive
taxonomy of soft power, the book offers an innovative and
substantiated perspective on a pivotal phenomenon in today's
international relations. As the forces of attraction in world
politics continue to gain in importance, it provides a valuable
asset for a broad readership. This book was the winner of the 2021
ifa (German Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations) Research
Award on Foreign Cultural Policy. "In this important and thoughtful
book, Hendrik Ohnesorge explains and advances our knowledge of the
ways that soft power, public diplomacy, and charismatic personal
diplomacy are shaping the international relations of our global
information age." Joseph S. Nye, Jr., Harvard University and author
of The Future of Power
