Offered with JSIS 488 B

In the last couple of decades, public diplomacy has become a catch-phrase to refer to states’ activities aimed at creating a receptive environment for their policies among foreign publics.

Nowadays, public diplomacy has become a central domain of engagement not only for states but also for international organizations such as the European Union (EU) that in its Global Strategy (2016) flagged the need of joining up efforts in the field of public diplomacy, inside and outside the EU. The first part of the course is designed to offer an overview of the history of public diplomacy through the twentieth century, its relationship to soft power and related activities including nation-branding, cultural relations and education exchange.

The course unfolds in four parts: First, we will ask ourselves what civil society is and how the Soviet/Socialist legacy has affected the development of the sector. Second, we will turn our attention to concrete forms of dissent and sub-cultural movements in the Eastern Bloc that paved the way for post-communist political transition. Third, we will critically examine the state of civil society in Central and Eastern Europe on the ground and the ambivalent legacy of the EU Accession. Fourth, we will look at civil society dynamics in the post-Soviet space more in general, with an emphasis on the Color Revolutions, the Maidan Revolution and civil society responses to the current conflict in Ukraine.
