Transnational Sites of China’s Cultural Diplomacy
Data on demand
© Authors. This special issue of Global Media & China critically examines the current fascination with indexing, mapping, ranking and metrics worldwide as they apply to nations, regions, municipalities, publications and even citizens. We now live in age of information abundance. This abundance has in turn generated enthusiasm for increasing scrutiny of data, big and small. Many questions therefore arise: how valid is the measurement? Who benefits…
Critical Security, Democratisation and Television in Taiwan
This title was first published in 2001. By examining the way the ruling Nationalist Party (KMT) dominated Taiwan’s three mainstream television stations before the introduction of political reform in the mid-1980s, the book provides an insightful investigation of how the media can be used as an instrument of both political power and emancipation. This new approach challenges many accepted assumptions about Taiwan’s political development, such as t…
Soft Power Rich, Public Diplomacy Poor
Accepting that Taiwan has accumulated “soft power” since the introduction of democratic reforms in the late 1980s, this paper assesses Taiwan's external communications during Ma Ying-jeou's presidency and how its soft power resources have been exercised. Demonstrating the strategic turn from political warfare to public and cultural diplomacy, the paper begins with the premise that the priority must be to increase familiarity with Taiwan among for…
Media freedom and responsibility in South Korea
This article analyses the perceptions of media freedom and responsibility by journalists and politicians in South Korea during the Presidency of Roh Moo-huyn (2003–2008). It draws on in-depth interviews with 10 journalists and 10 politicians with different political affiliations and interests. Findings suggest that both groups had positive appraisals of the country’s media democratisation. For them, the media could function as a watchdog on polit…
The Routledge Handbook of Soft Power
Since 2009, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (hereafter Vietnam) has turned its attention to developing a programme of activities that its government defines as ‘cultural diplomacy’. In Vietnam’s judgement, cultural diplomacy is an important strategic apparatus that must be integrated with the nation’s economic and political mechanisms of statecraft to further Vietnam’s regional and global ambitions. The government has identified cultural diplom…
Routledge Handbook of Soft Power
Approaches to soft power and public diplomacy in China and Taiwan
This paper compares the soft power capital and public diplomacy strategies of Taiwan and the People's Republic of China. The premise is that Taiwan's international status and the absence of formal diplomatic recognition by major powers are a serious constraint on Taiwan's ability engage in meaningful outreach with the global community. The focus of the discussion is a paradox: Taiwan should be more successful at soft power since it is the personi…
Political Communications in Democratic Taiwan
This article assesses the present state of political communications in Taiwan through a close analysis of the perceived relationship between journalists and politicians. This relationship is examined within the context of media commercialization. Based on the assumption that in cultures of democratic political communication the interaction between media and political actors involves both conflict and cooperation, we consider how journalists and p…
