Public Diplomacy and the Implementation of Foreign Policy in the US, Sweden and Turkey

This book presents a comprehensive framework, six pathways of connection, which explains the impact of public diplomacy on achieving foreign policy goals. The comparative study of three important public diplomacy practitioners with distinctive challenges and approaches shows the necessity to move beyond soft power to appreciate the role of public diplomacy in global politics. Through theoretical discussions and case studies, six pathways of connection is presented as a framework to design new public diplomacy projects and measure their impact on foreign policy.

Report

"Efe Sevin's book is a must read for practitioners, scholars, and students of public diplomacy, particularly those who are interested in the evaluation of public diplomacy projects. Furthermore, the book will appeal to IR scholars, who have generally been pessimistic about public diplomacy, perhaps because of the unintended dissonance with public diplomacy of the IR discipline." (Kadir Ayhan, International Studies Review, Vol. 20 (03), September, 2018)
