Public diplomacy and propaganda 作者：朱素梅 时间：2005年04月24日 What is Public Diplomacy? Definitions Origins of the term Public diplomacy and propaganda Public and traditional diplomacy What public diplomacy is and is not "PUBLIC DIPLOMACY refers to government-sponsored programs intended to inform or influence public opinion in other countries; its chief instruments are publications, motion pictures, cultural exchanges, radio and television." (U.S. Department of State, Dictionary of International Relations Terms, 1987, p. 85) USIA which was in the business of public diplomacy for more than forty years, defined PUBLIC DIPLOMACY as follows: Public diplomacy seeks to promote the national interest and the national security of the United States through understanding, informing, and influencing foreign publics and broadening dialogue between American citizens and institutions and their counterparts abroad.

He referred to the Declaration of Independence as being "first and foremost a propaganda tract." In 1961, Wilson Dizard, in the first book to be written specifically about USIA, which was then about eight years old, wrote: The United States has been in the international propaganda business, off and on, for a long time . . . propaganda played a crucial role in the war of independence." In the years following these earlier views, some U.S. Government officials and others contended that U.S. public diplomacy programs are not propaganda. Others still contend, however, that since propaganda can be based on fact, public diplomacy can be equated with propaganda i.e. ideas, information, or other material disseminated to win people over to a given doctrine. If based on falsehoods and untruths, while still propaganda, it is best described as "disinformation."

In traditional diplomacy, U.S. Embassy officials represent the U.S. Government in a host country primarily by maintaining relations and conducting official USG business with the officials of the host government whereas public diplomacy primarily engages many diverse non-government elements of a society.

Modern Diplomacy
2. Summitry

Forms of Summitry (Elmer Plischke)

making and enunciating policy;
communicating personally with foreign leaders;
commissioning personal representatives or special envoys;
receiving visiting summit leaders;
undertaking such visits and tours abroad;
participating in informal meetings and formal conferences.


What are the diplomatic purposes served by the summits?
1.Promoting friendly relations;
2.Clarifing intentions;
3.information gathering;
4.consular work (principally export
promotion and interceding on behalf of
detained nationals);
5.Negotiation.

Three kinds of summitry:
1.Serial summits
2.Ad hoc summits (including "working funeral")
3.The high-level "exchange of views"

A working funeral is of special diplomatic significance if it is the funeral of an incumbent head of government, since the funeral is almost certain to be the first occasion for foreign friends to confirm that the new leadership remains wedded to their relationship and for foreign rivals to explore the possibility of a change of heart. Warsaw Pact leaders always attended the funerals of leaders of the Soviet Union for the former purpose, while Western leaders attended them for the latter, at least in the 1980s.


首脑外交的优势与不足：（普利施科）
首先，最高级领导人之间彼此熟识，可面对面阐明各自的国家利益、外交政策、甚至国内困难。一些领导人之间建立了良好的私人关系，这种关系有助于促进正式的国家关系。在关系敌对的国家中，领导人之间的联系有助于澄清各自国家的立场，增加相互信任，消除分歧。
其次，首脑级领导人可以迅速地和直接地做出决定，避免了外交渠道的拖延和曲折。
不足：
首先，人们往往对首脑外交抱有过高的期望。
其次，参与首脑外交的领导人必须忍受新闻界刨根问底之苦。
第三，如外交由一个非职业的生手去处理，就要严重影响国家利益。

Nonstate Actors
1. territorial nonstate actors, such as national
liberation movements;

NATO or the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

In what ways do nonstate actors affect international politics?
1.introduce an issue onto the international diplomatic agenda;
2.publicize and raise citizen consciousness regarding certain global or regional problems;
3.lobby national governments and international organizations to make decisions favorable to their cause;
4.seek an outcome through direct action, sometimes (though relatively rarely) involving the threat or use of force.



Are nonstate actors in a position to replace the
power of the state?

No, the state still remains the critical actor of
international politics, because
1.only it commands the allegiance of peoples
occupying a defined territory;
2.only it possesses the capabilities to employ the
ultimate threat (war);

organizations,are concerned with the full range of
welfare and security issues of a population;

Kyoto Protocol was adopted in 1997, which commits industrialized countries to achieve targets for decreasing their emission of greenhouse gas

Kyoto Protocol will enter into force following ratifications by 55 countries to the FCCC, which account for at least 55% of total carbon dioxide emissions for 1990.

According to Kyoto Protocol, three mechanisms are established. They are: joint implementation

Mediation and the Art of Negotiation



Topic 9 Mediation and the Art of Negotiation


斡旋与调停
几个相关概念的区别
斡旋(good offices)
调解(conciliation)
调停(mediation)
仲裁(arbitration)

A third party acting as a ‘facilitator’ or providing ‘good offices’ has a more limited role than a mediator, usually involving no more than helping to bring the parties in conflict into direct negotiations. In short, its role is limited to the prenegotiation stage. Of course, it is quite common for a good offices mission to turn into mediation but the activities remain distinct. Unfortunately, this does not prevent many mediations from being described as missions of ‘good offices’. Mediation should also be distinguished from conciliation. This is an attempt to resolve a dispute by having it examined in depth by an independent commission of inquiry or ‘conciliation commission’. This then offers its recommendations for a settlement, which are non-binding. Arbitration is the same as conciliation except that the recommendation is binding. It is akin to but not the same as judicial settlement.

斡旋是指第三方国家、国际组织或个人劝使争端中的各方坐到或重新回到谈判桌边而本身并不介入谈判过程的一种行为。
调停是斡旋的进一步发展。调停者不仅传递信息，促成争端各方进行谈判，而且直接参加他们之间的谈判，提出合理建议，甚至还要保障最后达成的解决方案的遵守。

Definition of mediation
Oran Young: mediation is any action taken by an actor that is not a direct party to the crisis, that is designed to reduce or remove one or more of the problems of the bargaining relationship, and therefore to facilitate the termination of the crisis itself.

Jacob Bercovitch: mediation is a process of conflict management, related to but distinct from the parties' own efforts, where the disputing parties or their representatives seek the assistance, or accept an offer of help, from an individual, group, state or organization to change, affect or influence their perceptions or behavior, without resorting to physical force or invoking the authority of the law.

G.R.Berridge: Mediation is the active search for a negotiated settlement to an international or intrastate conflict by an impartial third party.

Mediation is likely to be used when
1.a dispute is long, drawn out and complex
2.the parties' own conflict management efforts have reached an impasse
3.neither party is prepared to countenance further costs or loss of life
4.both parties are prepared to co-operate to break their stalemate.




Disputing parties may want to initiate mediation in the hope that

1.this low-risk and flexible form of conflict management will actually help them understand their conflict, reduce some of its risks and get them closer toward settling it.

2.each party may embrace mediation in the expectation that the mediator might nudge or influence the other.

3.both parties may see mediation as a public expression of their commitment to genuine conflict management.

4.the parties may want an outsider to take much of the blame for failure.

Who are today’s mediators? What are their motives?

Track one (official)
The most important mediators are states, whether acting singly or collectively, or via the international organizations.
The major powers and middle powers: First, they seek the mediator’s mantle in order to defuse crises that threaten the global stability, including global economic stability, in which they have such an important stake. Secondly. The major powers generally think it prudent to mediate in conflicts if these occur within alliances or looser associations of states in which they play leading roles. The motive here is clearer: they are anxious to maintain solidarity. Thirdly, it is clear that the major powers also see mediation in general as a means of extending their networks of dependent clients. In other words, they see it not only as a means of preserving existing influence but also of projecting it into areas where previously it had not been great.
Small states: are interested in both the huge prestige that successful mediation can bring and the increased influence the mediation will produce as well.（The Algerian mediation of the Iranian Hostage Crisis）

Track two (unofficial)
Citizen diplomacy, (Hammer)
NGOs, Carter Center

二、外交谈判
定义
外交谈判即有关主权国家就彼此之间存在争端的问题以及其他重要的国际事务进行协商和讨论，以求协调彼此的立场，达成某种妥协，最终以和平方式解决问题。

Negotiation is a technique of regulated argument which normally occurs between delegations of officials representing states, international organizations or other agencies. It takes place with a view to achieving one or other of the following objectives: identification of common interests and agreement on joint or parallel action in their pursuit; recognition of conflicting interests and agreement on compromise; or, some combination of both. Negotiation is the most important function of diplomacy.
(Berridge)


外交谈判的类型
Five categories of negotiation
(according to the purpose of the parties)
1.extension agreements (e.g. aviation landing rights, tariff agreements, renewal of a peacekeeping force mandate, renewal of leasing arrangements for an overseas military base.)

3.redistribution negotiation (e.g. territorial boundaries, voting powers in an international institution)

What is Public Diplomacy?

Origins of the term
Public diplomacy and propaganda
Public and traditional diplomacy

What public diplomacy is and is not

"PUBLIC DIPLOMACY refers to government-sponsored programs intended to inform or influence public opinion in other countries; its chief instruments are publications, motion pictures, cultural exchanges, radio and television." (U.S. Department of State, Dictionary of International Relations Terms, 1987, p. 85)

USIA which was in the business of public diplomacy for more than forty years, defined PUBLIC DIPLOMACY as follows:

Public diplomacy seeks to promote the national interest and the national security of the United States through understanding, informing, and influencing foreign publics and broadening dialogue between American citizens and institutions and their counterparts abroad.

Origins of the term Public Diplomacy
"According to a Library of Congress study of U.S. international and

"Central to public diplomacy is the transnational flow of information and
ideas."

Public diplomacy and propaganda
To this day views differ as to whether or not "public diplomacy" and
"propaganda" are similar.

In 1955, Oren Stephens, author of Facts to a Candid World: America's
Overseas Information Program, called such programs (now known as "public

In the years following these earlier views, some U.S. Government officials
and others contended that U.S. public diplomacy programs are not
propaganda. Others still contend, however, that since propaganda can be
based on fact, public diplomacy can be equated with propaganda i.e. ideas,
information, or other material disseminated to win people over to a given
doctrine. If based on falsehoods and untruths, while still propaganda, it
is best described as "disinformation."

USIA officials always contended that their programs dealt with the known
facts; to do otherwise would be counterproductive as their reliability
would be questioned.

Edward R. Murrow, in May 1963, as the Director of USIA at the time, in
