This book explores new grounds that public diplomacy is entering
today, as domestic publics come to the forefront of the policy -
acting both as foreign policy constituencies and public diplomacy
actors cooperating with their foreign counterparts. The author
discusses the phenomena of public diplomacy's domestic dimension
described as government's ability to engage its own society in
foreign policy practices through information, cooperation and
identity-defining. By analysing data from over 80 recorded
interviews with Australian, Norwegian and American public diplomacy
practitioners, this volume illustrates both successful and
unsuccessful models of such cooperation. From Norwegian Peace
Diplomacy, through Australia's ambivalent engagement with Asia, to
U.S. Government-sponsored exchange programs, the author argues that
governments around the world are slowly accepting a paradigm shift
in diplomatic practice from monological/dialogical to a more
collaborative public diplomacy. This book is an essential resource
for students, scholars, experts and diplomats interested in world's
best-practices of engaging domestic civil society actors in foreign
policy statecraft.
