Unleashing a More Potent Public Diplomacy

Abstract

Public diplomacy, already a substantial tool in America's foreign policy, could become a more effective instrument in the next ten years. Much of its potential success rides on a bureaucratic change that takes place on October 1, 1999. The U.S. Information Agency, hitherto an independent "sister agency" to the State Department, will become fully integrated into State. If conceptualized and managed properly, the reorganization could lead to more public diplomacy successes.
