Produktbeschreibung
"This edited volume takes a distinct approach to the study of soft power in history, moving beyond the framework of the nation-state. The editors of this volume use "soft power" as a broad label to refer to the processes through which persuasion, the search for influence and power, and public opinion as an actor in foreign affairs, converge in the international arena. The book has been organized around three central themes: the circulation of knowledge and strategies across borders; collaboration of intermediary actors who have their own agencies and interests; and non-national identities, such as gender and race. The book also broadens the typical temporal and geographic understanding of soft power, starting in the nineteenth century and including cases from the Global South. It argues that the pursuit of soft power has been a global phenomenon, including regions that have been neglected in the general debates on the subject, such as Africa, Asia, and Latin America. These arguments and themes are explored through ten chapters that offer a powerful new interdisciplinary perspective on soft power for scholars and students of history and international relations"--
