Normative Power and the Future of EU Public Diplomacy

  • Chapter
European Public Diplomacy

Part of the book series: Palgrave Macmillan Series in Global Public Diplomacy ((GPD))

Abstract

We Europeans believe that public diplomacy plays a special role in the external relations of the European Union… Public diplomacy should reflect not only what we do or want to do; but also what we are and what we stand for. As we move towards a new and uncertain global order, this is probably more important than it has ever been. The values we considered self evident before, may not always be so in future.1

We are very grateful for the helpful comments of Mai’a Davis Cross, Jan Melissen, Simon Duke, Patrick James, and Geoffrey Pigman.
