Anti-Americanism and the Limits of Public Diplomacy

Meer over het boek

Public diplomacy's impact on American foreign policy is often overestimated, as its effectiveness is largely influenced by factors beyond policymakers' control. While it remains a valuable tool, the book argues for more realistic expectations regarding its role, emphasizing that it should complement rather than replace hard power strategies. The analysis highlights the limitations of public diplomacy in achieving foreign policy goals and challenges the notion that it can significantly enhance American influence on the global stage.
