Cooper, Andrew F.
Georgetown Journal of International Affairs, Summer 2007, v8, #2, pp125-133
"The ability of personalities such as Bono, Angelina Jolie,
and Bill Gates to gain access to world leaders is becoming increasingly
recognized if not fully understood by the international affairs
community. Here, Cooper discusses the impact of celebrity activism
in determining policies and shaping the agenda on a range of global
humanitarian issues." This article asks how seriously should
celebrities be taken in world affairs? Whom do they represent? And
to whom they are accountable." Andrew F. Cooper is associate
director and distinguished fellow at the Center for International
Governance Innovation.
