Understanding Culture In A Wider Sense As Reflecting The Values, Habits, And Accumulated Mores Of A Society, There Can Be Little Doubt That Peoples And Countries Are Affected By Their Cultural Differences Which Reflect Their Values, Outlooks, Intentions, Interests, Habits And Historical Hopes And Fears. Unless These Cultural And Other Differences Are Understood And Appreciated, There Is A Possibility Of Misconceptions, Misinterpretations, And Erroneous Judgment On All Sides, Which Can Be Extremely Dangerous In This Age.This Book Seeks To Understand Some Aspects Of These Cultural Differences Of Various Countries In Their Dealings With Each Other. Specifically, It Examines In One Part The Cultural Problems In Treaty Negotiations Because It Is Through Treaties Or Agreements, Formal Or Informal, That Independent Sovereign States Interact With Each Other And Try To Protect Their Interests And Rights In The International Society. Several Eminent Scholars And Practitioners Of International Law And Relations From Several Countries Study And Evaluate The Impact Of Cultural Differences On International Relations With Special Reference To The Negotiation Of Treaties. In The Second Part, The Book Examines How Similar Or Diverse Cultural Factors Affect The Relations Amongst States In A Limited Region Of Southeast Asia. Asean Has Been Taken Up As A Subject Of Study By Several Scholars Not Only Because Of Its Importance As An Area Lying On The Crossroads Of The East And The West, But Also Because It Provides A Rich And Fertile Ground For The Study Of The Impact Of Diverse Cultural Factors On The Lives And Behaviour Of These Ancient Societies In An Entirely New Age.

Download or read book Culture in World Politics written by Dominique Jacquin-Berdal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-27 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World politics can be viewed as the patterns of cooperation and conflict between groups of people with different cultural backgrounds. Surprisingly, though, for several decades the topics of culture in international relations has been largely ignored. Only recently an increasing interest has (re-)emerged in how world politics is affected by cultures, i.e. by collectively shared perceptions, norms and beliefs. Culture in World Politics contributes to this development by presenting a variety of ways in which the roles of cultures in world politics can be studied. A major aim of the book is to highlight alternative ways of thinking about the effects of culture on international relations, and to stimulate discussion on the relative merit of these various approaches. The book also shows the relevance of cultural studies for understanding two areas often assumed to be free of cultural influences: international violence, and the international political economy. The contributions not only include insightful theoretical discussions, but also show how illuminating empirical analyses can be undertaken with the help of cultural theories.

Download or read book Culture and International History written by Jessica C. E. Gienow-Hecht and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining the perspectives of 18 international scholars from Europe and the United States with a critical discussion of the role of culture in international relations, this volume introduces recent trends in the study of Culture and International History. It systematically explores the cultural dimension of international history, mapping existing approaches and conceptual lenses for the study of cultural factors and thus hopes to sharpen the awareness for the cultural approach to international history among both American and non-American scholars. The first part provides a methodological introduction, explores the cultural underpinnings of foreign policy, and the role of culture in international affairs by reviewing the historiography and examining the meaning of the word culture in the context of foreign relations. In the second part, contributors analyze culture as a tool of foreign policy. They demonstrate how culture was instrumentalized for diplomatic goals and purposes in different historical periods and world regions. The essays in the third part expand the state-centered view and retrace informal cultural relations among nations and peoples. This exploration of non-state cultural interaction focuses on the role of science, art, religion, and tourism. The fourth part collects the findings and arguments of part one, two, and three to define a roadmap for further scholarly inquiry. A group of" commentators" survey the preceding essays, place them into a larger research context, and address the question "Where do we go from here?" The last and fifth part presents a selection of primary sources along with individual comments highlighting a new genre of resources scholars interested in culture and international relations can consult.

Download or read book Cultural Dimensions of Strategy and Policy written by Jiyul Kim and published by Strategic Studies Institute. This book was released on 2009 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been a growing recognition in the post-Cold War era that culture has increasingly become a factor in determining the course of today's complex and interconnected world. The U.S. experience in Afghanistan and Iraq extended this trend to national security and military operations. There is also a growing recognition by the national security community that culture is an important factor at the policy and strategy levels. Cultural proficiency at the policy and strategy levels means the ability to consider history, values, ideology, politics, religion, and other cultural dimensions and assess their potential effect on policy and strategy. The Analytical Cultural Framework for Strategy and Policy (ACFSP) is one systematic and analytical approach to the vital task of viewing the world through many lenses. The ACFSP identifies basic cultural dimensions that seem to be of fundamental importance in determining such behavior and thus are of importance in policy and strategy formulation and outcomes. These dimensions are (1) Identity, or the basis for defining identity and its linkage to interests; (2) Political Culture, or the structure of power and decisionmaking; and (3) Resilience, or the capacity or ability to resist, adapt or succumb to external forces. Identity is the most important, because it ultimately determines purpose, values and interests that form the foundation for policy and strategy to attain or preserve those interests.
Download or read book Between Understanding and Misunderstanding written by Yasushi Sugiyama and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1990-08-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although international cultural exchange is an important feature of contemporary international relations, it remains one of the most neglected areas of research and training. Since World War II, more than six million academics and countless other individuals have spent significant amounts of time studying and visiting in countries other than their own. Still, despite this phenomenal development in international cultural exchanges, we have relatively little knowledge of what is involved in such actions, and what their individual, societal, organizational, and governmental effects may be. This volume, a collection of papers presented at the International Cultural Exchange Symposium, examines the study of international cultural exchange and the role that cultural factors play in contemporary international relations. The book explores the state of this yet-to-be-recognized field, identifying the conceptual, methodological, and administrative problems involved in cultural exchange, and recommending measures that could improve the quality, effectiveness, and costs of international programs. Although the primary focus remains on the issues of U.S.-Japanese exchange, broader themes that touch upon cultural relations in general are also discussed. Topics covered in the various contributions include problems of U.S.-Japanese educational exchange; issues in British cultural exchange policy; educational cooperation between the University of Massachusetts and Hokkaido University; international broadcasting; and student exchange and the use of technology. The book's contributors represent some of the United States' and Japan's leading academic institutions, including the University of Massachusetts, Tokyo University, Columbia, the University of Kyoto, and Harvard. This book will be a valuable resource for courses in international relations and communications, cultural anthropology and sociology, and international education, and a necessary addition to libraries at universities, cultural institutions and international organizations.
