  • Are International Exchange and Mobility Programmes Effective Tools of Symmetric Public Diplomacy?
    Are International Exchange and Mobility Programmes Effective Tools of Symmetric Public Diplomacy? Iain Wilson Aberystwyth University 2010 1 Abstract Governments often fund foreign nationals to live, work and study in their countries, creating specialist programmes tasked with promoting international mobility. In this thesis I establish that much of this funding is intended to serve a public diplomacy agenda, improving international relations to the benefit of the sponsor. Expectations about how offering funding to foreigners affects international relations have come to centre on what I label the „symmetric public diplomacy model‟, which suggests that governments intend to influence other countries‟ behaviour by influencing their citizens. I tested this model using a combination of panel surveys and interviews with students who took part in these programmes. Although mobility programmes do bring many educational and personal benefits to participants, my results do not support the expectation that they endow most visiting foreigners with more helpful attitudes than they would have developed had they not taken part in the programmes. While other studies have come to different conclusions on this issue, the research design employed in this thesis is better-suited to the task than most others. Mobility programmes may bring diplomatic benefits by other means. One possibility is that the act of creating, for example, scholarships for foreign nationals sends signals to foreign governments. The histories of major British scholarship programmes suggest that they were originally created to signal goodwill or distract attention from potentially- embarrassing policies. Despite this, administrators now present these programmes as tools of public diplomacy. The symmetric public diplomacy model has been applied to these programmes long after they were initially created, and I suggest that the model may have been adopted because it is useful for attracting funding to continue and expand mobility programmes.

  • Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission
    CORPORATE PLAN 2021-2024 MARSHALL AID COMMEMORATION COMMISSION (MACC) FOREWORD In 1953 the British Parliament enacted the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission Act named in honour of General George C. Marshall, in appreciation of the assistance given in the aftermath of World War II through the European Recovery Programme - commonly known as the Marshall Plan. This Act created the Marshall Scholarships and specified that the Marshall Aid Commemoration Commission, or Commission, be established to oversee and manage the scholarships. The Commission came into being that year, and the first twelve Marshall Scholars arrived in the UK in 1954. In his message to the scholars, General Marshall wrote "A close accord between our two countries is essential to the good of mankind in this turbulent world of today, and that is not possible without an intimate understanding of each other." In the years since then, the Commission has overseen what has become a very successful and prestigious scholarship programme for young American students wishing to undertake postgraduate degrees at universities throughout the UK. Indeed, the President of the United States of America recognised the Marshall Scholarships as one of the top academic honours anywhere in the world. The programme’s success can be demonstrated by the positions of significant influence held by many of the 2000 Marshall Scholars to date, including two Supreme Court Justices, the Director of the CIA, an Astronaut, a Nobel Laureate, the former White House Legislative Affairs Director, four Pulitzer Prize winning authors and journalists, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker, several founders of multi-billion dollar enterprises, and numerous innovators and leaders in all branches of science and education.
