"The Cold War superpowers endeavored mightily to 'win hearts and minds' abroad through what came to be called public diplomacy. While many target audiences were on the conflict's original front-lines in Europe, the vast majority resided in areas in the throes of decolonization. This book explores how, for all the blood and drama of intervention, crisis, and revolution during the Cold War, the vast majority of these non-Europeans experienced it as a media war for their allegiance rather than as a violent war for their lives. In these outlying regions, superpower public diplomacy encountered volatile issues of race, empire, poverty, and decolonization--all of which intersected unpredictably with the dynamics of the Cold War and anti-imperialist currents. The challenge to U.S. public diplomacy was acute. At a time when the United States' image was inseparable from Jim Crow and Washington's European-imperial alliances, the cresting of these issues put U.S. outreach on the defensive. Yet, as Jason Parker argues, the greater consequence of these Cold War campaigns was international, not U.S.-centric, in scope. The non-European world responded to this media war by joining it. A proliferation of newly independent voices launched public diplomacy campaigns of their own, offering a roundabout validation of strategic public diplomacy while articulating an alternative vision of the postwar world. By reappropriating the geopolitical and intellectual space between the Cold War superpowers, this global conversation formulated a 'Third World project' that coalesced around principals of nonalignment, post-imperial economic development, and anti-colonial racial solidarity. The global South's response to the injection of the Cold War into their social, economic, and political reality thus helped to create the 'Third World' as a transnational, imagined community on the postwar global landscape"-- Cold War Diplomatic history Decolonization Developing countries History 20th century Race Political aspects United States History 20th century Race Political aspects Developing countries History 20th century HISTORY / Modern / 20th Century bisacsh HISTORY / United States / 20th Century bisacsh SOCIAL SCIENCE / Media Studies bisacsh United States Foreign relations Developing countries Developing countries Foreign relations United States United States Foreign relations Philosophy United States Foreign relations 1945-1989 Developing countries Politics and government 20th century Developing countries Foreign relations 20th century https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Basel: Volltext https://www.oxfordscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Basel: Volltext https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Bern: Volltext BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 University Press Scholarship Online History Collection Oxford Scholarship Online History E-Books von 360MarcUpdates Oxford Scholarship Online IDSBB A145 A145 145VT IDSBB A145 A145 145VT IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4052004 IDSBB 100 1- Parker Jason C. author IDSBB 856 40 https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Basel: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://www.oxfordscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Basel: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://oxford.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780190251840.001.0001/acprof-9780190251840 Uni Bern: Volltext SWISSBIB 439721334
