Book Poland s New Ways of Public Diplomacy

Download or read book Poland s New Ways of Public Diplomacy written by Beata Ociepka and published by Studies in Communication and Politics. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes when and how Poland implemented public diplomacy. The author explains it as a form of external political communication of governments conducted in cooperation with non-state actors to position the country internationally. The Polish case illustrates how a mid-size country in Europe attempts to impact the public opinion formation abroad while implementing soft power tools. Since 2004, when Poland joined the EU, the country has used public diplomacy to inform the world about its achievements. Poland's public diplomacy has been strongly oriented on Europe and shaped by geopolitics. It integrated transmission and network models of communication. The Polish model reflects the relevance of public diplomacy domestic dimension and the focus on foreign politics on memory. «The book (...) is the first monograph analyzing contemporary Polish public diplomacy written in English, being at the same time a methodologically sound piece of research, based on extensive primary source research.» Professor Andrzej Mania, Chair of American Studies and the History of Diplomacy and International Politics, Jagiellonian University «An excellent case study of public diplomacy. Ociepka systematically analyzed the Polish utilization of key public diplomacy instruments including cultural diplomacy, branding and Twiplomacy, and properly placed them within historical and theoretical contexts.» Professor Eytan Gilboa, Director, Center for International Communication, Bar-Ilan University

This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph deals with Polish foreign policy shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War. In tracing the diplomatic activity of foreign minister Józef Beck, it discusses six general problems: (1) the Polish political situation under the pressure of appeasement; (2) the project of Intermarium and efforts to implement it; (3) the action against Czechoslovakia and the conflict with the Soviet Union; (4) the Polish attitude towards the German concept of Gesamtlosung in Germany's relations with Poland; (5) the genesis of the Polish alliance with Great Britain; (6) the Allies' military inaction after Nazi Germany's aggression. In these conditions, Poland made four key decisions: it stood against Czechoslovakia, it rejected German demands, it allied itself with the United Kingdom, and it rejected the Soviet Union's claim for the Red Army to march across Polish lands.

Book Searching for a Cultural Diplomacy

Download or read book Searching for a Cultural Diplomacy written by Jessica C. E. Gienow-Hecht and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies on the meaning of cultural diplomacy in the twentieth century often focus on the United States and the Cold War, based on the premise that cultural diplomacy was a key instrument of foreign policy in the nation’s effort to contain the Soviet Union. As a result, the term “cultural diplomacy” has become one-dimensional, linked to political manipulation and subordination and relegated to the margin of diplomatic interactions. This volume explores the significance of cultural diplomacy in regions other than the United States or “western” countries, that is, regions that have been neglected by scholars so far—Eastern Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. By examining cultural diplomacy in these regions, the contributors show that the function of information and exchange programs differs considerably from area to area depending on historical circumstances and, even more importantly, on the cultural mindsets of the individuals involved.

Download or read book The Jews in Poland written by Joshua Leung and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Great War and the collapse of the empires in East Central Europe paved the way for the establishment of the new successor states to these empires. The transition from empires to nation states also gave rise to a new problem: that of the minorities within these new 'minorities states'. Poland, the largest of these new states, was faced in particular with a population of which one third was not Polish. In order to guarantee the rights of these minorities, the great powers made Poland sign a minorities treaty. The impetus behind the implementation of this minorities treaty with Poland and the monitoring of the situation of the Jews throughout the interwar period was ensured by a number of Jewish associations that conducted 'minorities diplomacy', a diplomacy conducted on behalf of the minorities. The main interlocutors for this diplomacy were the foreign ministries of the great powers, particularly Britain and France, as well as international organisations such as the League of Nations and the international civil society. This minorities diplomacy enjoyed a marked success at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, a success that was repeated in the 1920s. However, the 1930s saw this diplomacy lose its influence, linked to the decline of the League of Nations. Ultimately, minorities diplomacy became obsolete after the international community abandoned the collective rights of minorities in favour of individual rights and population transfers in the aftermath of the Second World War.

Book The Second Partition of Poland

Download or read book The Second Partition of Poland written by Robert Lord and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-23 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE cause of Poland owed no effective aid to British statesmanship, from the time of Pitt's passivity in 1792 to that of Lord Russell's non possumus in 1863; and there was very cold comfort in the words which, as we learn from Mr. Buckle's new volume, Disraeli used in the house of commons: "If the partition of Poland was a great crime, it was a crime shared by the Polish people, as their national existence could not have been destroyed without some faults on their side.' Students of history who have contented themselves with this kind of self-complacent judgement and the grain of truth which it contains, will do well to read Dr. Lord's monograph, and more especially the introductory part of it, which deals with 'the unfortunate historic evolution of the Polish constitution', together with the very remarkable chapters treating of the beginnings of national revival, and of the attempted realization of them in the constitution of the third of May. Dr. Lord justly holds that the history of the second partition of Poland, which is his proper theme (although he carries it forward in some respects to the much debated ground of the negotiations which ended in the third partition), cannot be understood when viewed as a mere episode in the history of the revolutionary war, or as a result of the transactions (the reverse of complete) between the eastern powers down to the time of the Russo-Prussian Convention of January 1793. To these transactions Dr. Lord has given full attention; and those who can call to mind the controversies of a past generation, in which the conclusions of Sybel's great book on the revolutionary epoch were impugned by Hüffer and others and defended by the eminent author with no measured scorn, will readily acknowledge the use made in the present volume of the new sources, and of the new historical works, Polish and Russian in particular, which have been open to the use of its writer. He has thus produced one of the most notable diplomatic studies that have been recently published, and one which does great credit to the historical school of which he is a member. --The English Historical Review, Volume 21

Book Empowering Revolution

Download or read book Empowering Revolution written by Gregory F. Domber and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-10-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the most populous country in Eastern Europe as well as the birthplace of the largest anticommunist dissident movement, Poland is crucial in understanding the end of the Cold War. During the 1980s, both the United States and the Soviet Union vied for influence over Poland's politically tumultuous steps toward democratic revolution. In this groundbreaking history, Gregory F. Domber examines American policy toward Poland and its promotion of moderate voices within the opposition, while simultaneously addressing the Soviet and European influences on Poland's revolution in 1989. With a cast including Reagan, Gorbachev, and Pope John Paul II, Domber charts American support of anticommunist opposition groups--particularly Solidarity, the underground movement led by future president Lech Wa&322;&281;sa--and highlights the transnational network of Polish emigres and trade unionists that kept the opposition alive. Utilizing archival research and interviews with Polish and American government officials and opposition leaders, Domber argues that the United States empowered a specific segment of the Polish opposition and illustrates how Soviet leaders unwittingly fostered radical, pro-democratic change through their policies. The result is fresh insight into the global impact of the Polish pro-democracy movement.
