Cultural Diplomacy: the Case Analysis of Lithuanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2013 CULTURAL DIPLOMACY: THE CASE ANALYSIS OF LITHUANIAN PRESIDENCY OF THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION IN 2013 Master’s Thesis University of Jyvaskyla Department of Social Sciences and Philosophy Social and Public Policy Cultural Policy Laura Dirmaite Supervisor: Kia Lindroos Autumn 2015 ABSTRACT Cultural Diplomacy: The Case Analysis of Lithuanian Presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2013. Laura Dirmaitė Master’s Thesis Social and Public Policy Cultural Policy Department of Social Sciences and Philosophy University of Jyvaskyla Supervisor: Kia Lindroos Autumn 2015 Pages: 80 pages + 1 appendix A great range of various cultural events was presented in all member states of the European Union and overseas during the Presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2013. The greatest part of the cultural programme was implemented with the help of Lithuanian cultural attachés. The present Thesis focuses on cultural actors and projects involved in such particular term. Qualitative research through expert interviews (i.e. with Lithuanian cultural attachés in the United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, Italy, Poland and the Permanent Representation of The Republic of Lithuania in the European Union in Belgium) was the research method used for this Master’s Thesis. The source material in this Master´s Thesis consists largely of recent books and articles about cultural diplomacy written by significant authors and scholars who greatly contributed to this issue. Also, some Lithuanian authors are presented in this paper when analysing the meaning of cultural diplomacy at Lithuanian level. In addition, some of the legal documents of the Republic of Lithuania must be interpreted when talking about the organizational structure of cultural diplomacy in Lithuania. Results indicate that a cultural attaché as individual institution abroad significantly contributes to various dynamic cultural processes. Lithuanian cultural attachés were strongly involved in processes of the Presidency regarding planning, organization and implementation in various level of the cultural programme. From the results of the thesis it can be concluded that cultural attachés are active, open and cooperating participants in cultural field that attract attention of Lithuanian organizations and artists as well as international cultural actors. Also, they are noticeable cultural disseminators outside Lithuanian borders. An attaché throughout cultural projects and activities introduces both international community and Lithuanian diaspora abroad with Lithuanian culture, arts and heritage. Key Words: cultural diplomacy, cultural attaché, cultural programme, Presidency, Council of the EU. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

The name appeared as the place where the archbishop Brunonus was struck on the head by pagans during his mission to the lands of the Yatvingians, and was found dead near the border of Lithuania and Prussia (Baranauskas, 2009). Unfortunately, Lithuania was highlighted in the above-mentioned source not in a very reassuring way. Although, Lithuania celebrated its one thousand years symbolic celebration in 2009, The Republic of Lithuania is a relatively young state counting 25 years of regained independence in 1990. The past quarter of century has been full of significant challenges and important decisions, the country undergoing simultaneous economic, political and social transitions, involving also an external image transformation and identity change. In 2004, The Republic of Lithuania together with other nine countries became a full-fledged member of the European Union. In 2009, Vilnius – the capital of Lithuania - was the European Capital of Culture. Moreover, Lithuania had the honour to hold the Presidency of the Council of the European Union for six months in the second half of 2013. Later in 2015, the state finally became a member of the Eurozone. During the 25 years of independence Lithuania has gained its recognition and credibility in Europe and other countries all over the world as a young but reliable partner. The country is seen as a competent member, which is active and involved in significant activities and events at various levels of the European Union. One thousand years passed since that miserable appearance when Lithuania´s name spread in Europe for the first time. Despite, even today we occasionally can hear discreditable stories about Lithuanians abroad, more and more talented Lithuanians spread a reputable message about their country and its culture. Culture has many different significances and meanings. In this paper, the stress will be addressed on cultural diplomacy and the context is the context of the Republic of Lithuania. Cultural diplomacy describes the use and transfer of cultural ideas between different group to achieve rapport and understanding. It reveals itself in a great range of practices and policies in many fields. Although, there is no specific number of adherents involved in cultural diplomacy, the latter is mostly conducted by governments and rulers of nations that have the greatest effect on the lives of ordinary citizens and current events, and provide the most comprehensive records of its use (McBrewster, Miller & Vandome 2009, 2). 4 1.1.RESEARCH QUESTION This Master’s Thesis paper aims to analyse the condition of cultural diplomacy of Lithuania during the Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the second half of 2013. The Republic of Lithuania was the first of three Baltic States to hold the Presidency of the Council of the European Union. A great range of various cultural events was presented in all member states of the European Union as well as Canada, The U.S., Russia and so on. The greatest part of the cultural programme abroad was implemented with the help of Lithuanian Embassies and Lithuanian cultural attachés. Due to the fact that the Presidency was seen as one of the most significant stages of Lithuania´s presence in the European Union, it inspired me to analyse Lithuanian cultural programme during such period, focusing on cultural actors and projects involved in this particular process. In order to achieve the goal of this Thesis it was important to determine the meaning of cultural diplomacy in the level of the EU and Lithuania, and to define the role of cultural attachés in cultural diplomacy; to identify the institutions involved in the processes of Lithuanian cultural diplomacy; and to ascertain the interaction between Lithuanian cultural attachés and the main cultural projects presented during the Presidency of the Council of the EU in 2013. All of these aspects reflect in the main three parts of

  • Cultural Diplomacy and the National Interest
    Cultural Diplomacy and The National Interest Cultural Diplomacy and The National Interest: In Search of a 21st-Century Perspective Overview Interest in public and cultural diplomacy, after a long post-Cold War decline, has surged in the last few years. This new focus inside and outside government has two causes: first, the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the perception that the U.S. is losing a war of culture against Islamic extremists; and second, the documented global collapse of positive public sentiment toward the U.S. But the task facing policy leaders – translating interest into action – must accommodate the reality that government cultural work has been diminished in scope even as trade in cultural products and Internet communication has increased the complexity and informal character of cross-cultural communication. The current state of U.S. cultural and public diplomacy has been reviewed by numerous special commissions and elite bodies, ranging from the 9/11 Commission to the RAND Corporation, from Congress’s Governmental Accountability Office (GAO) to the Council on Foreign Relations. Resulting recommendations have emphasized increased funding, better coordination, increased State Department programming, and more private-sector partnership to support programming that the State Department and governmental broadcasting outlets are already producing. However, because cultural work constitutes a long-term, diffuse, and largely immeasurable solution to a pressing problem in an age of quick fixes, the larger concept of cultural diplomacy – defined most broadly as the propagation of American culture and ideals around the world – tends to get short shift in these presentations. In addition, the lion’s share of The Curb Center for Art, American cultural content is conveyed by private-sector film, recording, and Enterprise, and Public Policy at Vanderbilt broadcasting industries, functioning beyond the realm of official policy objectives.

  • The Use of Cultural Diplomacy by Brazilian Government Abstract The
    1 Building a new strategy: the use of Cultural Diplomacy by Brazilian Government Abstract The paper will explore the co-relation between diplomacy and culture when States seek for power in the international arena. We postulate that countries with an interest to push the current power structure – and change today’s established order – can try to use cultural assets to enforce their own interests and values at the international arena. Considering that culture becomes an apparatus to achieve power and transform international society, we hypothesize that emerging powers - introduced lately at International Society - could articulate their positions by associating culture and diplomacy – an essential institution of international society. The instrumentalization of culture by Cultural Diplomacy contributes to these countries becoming more reputable in the international environment and tends to re- structure the balance of power. We propose to use the Brazilian case to illustrate our proposition. In this way, the paper will especially work with literature about International Cultural Relations and its intersection with Cultural History. The works of Robert Frank, Pascal Ory and Anaïs Fléchét will offer the main contribution for this argument. Introduction The research presented here intends to be a contribution to International Relations research field, especially by incorporating elements of Cultural History and by reflection on identity issues and on Brazilian international projection in the twenty-first century. Thus, from the study of the Brazilian cultural diplomacy strategies in the beginning of this century – period of major changes in the organization of international relations of Brazil –, we aim to demonstrate how countries considered ‘emerging poles’ (LIMA, 2010) can and make use of mechanisms created by States established in International Society.

  • The Role of Study-Abroad Students in Cultural Diplomacy: Toward an International Education As Soft Action Madalina Akli, Ph.D
    International Research and Review: Journal of Phi Beta Delta Volume 2, Issue 1, Fall 2012 Honor Society for International Scholars ISSN: 2167-8669 Publication URL: http://www.phibetadelta.org/publications.php The Role of Study-Abroad Students in Cultural Diplomacy: Toward an International Education as Soft Action Madalina Akli, Ph.D. Rice University Abstract This paper argues that study-abroad students should be at the center of cultural diplomacy. It recognizes that students can engage in soft action to establish intercultural dialogue. They develop and sustain relationships with people from host countries through cultural immersion and education. Study-abroad students are encouraged to proactively claim their cultural diplomacy role, and thereby cause a shift from formal soft power, traditionally concentrated in embassies and the diplomatic corps, to informal soft action in daily life abroad. With the recent development of a plethora of study-abroad opportunities, soft power can be re-configured by students and educators who cross national borders. Consequently, they are the potential agents of a paradigm shift regarding cultural diplomacy and international education: they are today’s new unofficial cultural diplomats. Key words: international education, study abroad, student cultural ambassadors, cultural diplomacy, soft action A Brief Historical Overview of U.S. International Education: A Diversity of Rationales and Purposes From a historical perspective, the development of international education from 1945 to 1970, although dynamic,

The geopolitics of the 21st century mean we need to see a revival of cultural diplomacy. China and India are already expanding their external cultural policies. Despite Europe‘s huge cultural diversity, the EU has still not developed an adequate cultural strategy for its foreign policy. The establishment of the European External Action Service (EEAS) provides an opportunity to tighten up and co-ordinate the EU‘s existing cultural foreign policy.

  • Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
    Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe.
