How are we to understand these developments and conduct diplomacy in their presence?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNicholas J. Cull, the distinguished historian of propaganda, revisits the international media campaigns of the past in the light of the challenges of the present. His concept of Reputational Security deftly links issues of national image and outreach to the deepest needs of any state, rescuing them from the list of low-priority optional extras to which they are so often consigned in the West. Reputational Security, he argues, comes from being known and appreciated in the world. With clarity and determination, Cull considers core tasks, approaches, and opportunities available for international actors today, including counterpropaganda, media development, diaspora diplomacy, cultural work, and – perhaps most surprisingly of all – media disarmament. This book is crucial for all who care about responding to the threat of malign media disruption, revitalizing international cooperation, and establishing the Reputational Security we and our allies need to survive and flourish.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eReputational Security\u003c\/i\u003e is enlightening reading for students and scholars of public diplomacy, international relations, security studies, communications, and media, as well as practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface and Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e List of Figures\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Introduction: Reputation and Soft Power: Image and Action in World Affairs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter One: Reputational Security: Frame, Objective and Agenda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Two:  Technology and Reputational Security: Historical Cases of Media Disruption and Adoption\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Three: Pushing Back: Counter-Propaganda and Reputational Security\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Four: Media Development: A Tool for Reputational Security\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Five: Information Disarmament: A Forgotten Element of Reputational Security\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Six: Diaspora Diplomacy: From History to Reputational Security\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Seven: Cultural Diplomacy, Cultural Relations, and Reputational Security\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Chapter Eight: Rethinking US Public Diplomacy: The Apparatus of Reputational Security \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Conclusion: The Reckoning: Reputational Security and Russia’s War in Ukraine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Selected Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Society \u0026amp; culture: general [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Society \u0026amp; culture: general\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Society%20\u0026amp;%20culture:%20general%20%5BJF%5D%22\"\u003eJF\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Polity","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52441813778712,"sku":"9781509559251","price":46.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781509559251.jpg?v=1785026876","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/reputational-security-refocusing-public-diplomacy-for-a-dangerous-world-hardback-9781509559251","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
