The Rise of China with Cultural Soft Power in the Age of Globalization

Culture has been exerting an even greater influence on China’s image construction and nation branding in today’s globalizing world.As“culture”is the core of Chinese soft power strategy,the concept of“soft power”has been redefined as“cultural soft power”in the Chinese context.Cultural instruments,including the Chinese language as well as traditional and popular cultures,are widely implemented as the“charm”tools to wield and project China’s soft power.Cultural diplomacy is also viewed as an effective way to promote an understanding of China’s ideals,support Chinese economic goals and enhance Chinese national security in subtle,wide-ranging,and sustainable ways.Although Chinese soft power is still in its“embryonic phase”,partly due to its close link to the country’s economic performance and huge market attraction as well as the disadvantages generated by the political and ideological issues,it has contributed greatly to expand China’s international influence and create a circle of like-minded allies on its periphery,in which process its increasing importance shall not be neglected.

American Multinational Media and the Expansion of American Mass Culture

With the development of globalization and gradual intensification of mutual dependence of the world, "hard power" which includes economic and military strength is no longer the primary consideration for many countries. They tend to pay more attention to the attractiveness of their "soft power",which includes values,life style , ideology and so forth. Just as Joseph S. Ny , the famous professor of Harvard who puts forward the concept of soft power, says ,"only by widespread communication and diffusion can a country reinforces its soft power". This is mass media's function. Since the 1990s, tens of thousands cultural products brought in from America are exported to foreign countries, including popular music, films ,TV programs, magazines, books and so forth. By making advantage of its monopoly position in media circle, the United States pursues cultural hegemonism and expands its popular culture all over the world.

Erasmus Student or EU Ambassador? People-to-People Contact in the European Neighbourhood Policy: The Cases of Georgia, Ukraine, and Tunisia

This paper investigates to what extent and why the key Action 1 of the Erasmus+ programme, namely learning mobility of individuals, can be considered a soft power’s instrument on European neighbourhood countries. The core assumption is that due to people-to-people contact, Erasmus participants are most likely to become EU informal ambassadors, in the sense that they become carriers of EU soft power leading to changes in cultural and social perceptions. However, what will the place of Erasmus+ be in the ongoing debate on international cultural relations’ strategy? Erasmus+ can play a major role in this new strategy considering the huge growth of mobility flows between EU and ENP countries, since the new programme was launched. Moreover, EU institutions are looking for new strategic tools of public diplomacy. Have they realised that the external dimension of Erasmus+ lends itself to being one of these? Therefore, the topic of this work is of high interest because it is closely related to the debate about both the means and the ends of the EU external policy. For the sake of this research, three case studies, from different geographical regions neighbouring the EU, have been chosen: Tunisia, Ukraine, and Georgia. A comparison among these three countries will reveal under which conditions Erasmus+ can be considered a soft power’s instrument. Hence, the identification of conditions applicable to all EU partner countries in order to evaluate whether the EU can spread its soft power through Erasmus+, represents the paper’s added value which opens new avenues for further research on the topic.

A Study in the City Diplomacy of the Silk Road Cities

The study of diplomacy against current situation and theoretical research of international relations,especially the study of traditional diplomatic theories,has been involved in a monotonous repetition and circulation.In the circulation,the diplomatic theories of politics are restricted to the area of inter-country diplomacy,which has prevented public diplomatic relations from further development.Though countries still play major roles in Eurasian continental diplomacy,city diplomacy between the Asian-European countries that just sets off inter-country diplomacy has yielded further advancement of public diplomacy,which will have a great significance for cultural exchange,economic development,social civilization,and political comprehension(the inclusiveness of political ideologies).Therefore,against the era of“The Belt and Road”in today’s China,the study of diplomacy based on cities can exert a positive effect on the ease of sovereignty dispute,adaptation of globalization,the alleviation of conflicts by means of cultural soft power,and even the integration of regions.

中西方体育文化软实力发展的价值取向及其深层动因

后冷战时代,随着文化的价值功能被重新定位,文化软实力竞争日益成为大国之间进行国力竞争的重要内容。美国等西方大国的体育文化软实力战略不同程度地充当了对外政策的工具,其目的在于按西方价值偏好塑造“新的他者”,重建西方体育主导地位;中国体育文化软实力建设则始终聚焦于自身发展,塑造“新的自我”,使中国以和平发展的崭新形象屹立于世界民族之林。之所以如此,根本原因在于,商业文明造就的西方体育文化作为世界体坛的一种强势文化,是西方现代性主流文化的衍生物,一定程度上带有“西方文明优越论”的文化偏见;而中国体育文化与生俱来地携带着中华文明天下观和美德伦理的先天基因,本质上是一种充满人文关怀、具有德性和包容性的柔性文化。在新的历史条件下,正确处理与西方体育文化的关系,建设中华民族现代体育文明,是中国体育文化软实力建设必须直面的时代课题。

中原城市群文化软实力综合评价及空间分异研究

基于文化吸引力、文化展示力、文化传播力、文化创新力、文化事业投入力和文旅融合力6个维度构建文化软实力评价指标体系,运用空间分类、核密度分析、空间自相关等方法,分析中原城市群文化软实力的空间特征并解析其影响因素。结果表明:(1)从综合实力差异看,高、较高文化软实力城市数量少且主要分布在核心区,中等实力城市仅有3个,半数城市为低和较低实力。空间上具有明显的东西差异,西半壁呈现以郑汴为引领的中心外围格局,东半壁则表现为亳州、阜阳引领的极化特征,且在东西半壁之间形成聊城至驻马店的低值连绵带。(2)从分维度空间差异看,文化吸引力子系统、文化展示力子系统与综合实力格局类似,而文化事业投入力子系统呈现“西北高、东南低”的格局。此外,文化传播力子系统、文化创新力子系统呈现与前3个子系统完全不同的格局,表现为以郑汴为核心的低值包围高值的分布结构。(3)从空间集聚和关联看,中原城市群分别围绕郑州和亳州形成了“一主一副”的双核集聚态势,且主核区附近形成了显著的高-高集聚群。其中,文化吸引力子系统与综合实力的集聚格局基本一致,文化展示力子系统的集聚在郑州减弱而在亳州得到加强,文化传播力子系统和文化创新力子系统仅在中部形成集聚核心,文旅融合力子系统则在综合格局的基础上在东南部形成两个集聚核心。(4)从影响因素看,市区GDP对城市文化软实力的影响最强,第三产业增加值次之,交通设施、科教文卫单位数和城镇化率的影响作用不明显。
