| G5 - Goodwill Hunting
Bayles, Martha
The Wilson Quarterly. Summer 2005, v29, #3; p46-, 9p
"To walk through the Zoologischer Garten district of Berlin
is to experience a version of America, but just a block away, on
the relatively quiet Hardenbergstrasse, stands a small building
that between 1957 and 1998 represented the best of US cultural diplomacy:
Amerika Haus. Cultural diplomacy is a dimension of public diplomacy,
a term that covers an array of efforts to foster goodwill toward
America among foreign populations. But there is scant encouragement
in polls that in more than 20 countries, a plurality of respondents
see America's influence in the world as 'mainly negative.' Bayles
further expounds American pop culture's ambiguous role abroad."
