  • 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.

Contact: [email protected] Introduction According to Jewish tradition, it is imperative that all Jews have a deep understanding of their history and roots. Unfortunately, after so many years, information becomes muddled. This project aims to take focus on just one small and misunderstood region. The Balkans showcase a rare combination of religions and ethnicities that are hard to find elsewhere. These are just a few of the many Jewish stories. Past, Present, and Future Greek Jews Work to Keep Heritage Alive In the crowded and chaotic Athens neighborhood of Monastiraki, there is an odd mix of local teenagers drinking coffee and tourists from all over Europe buying miniature Parthenon statues at exorbitant prices. It is also common to see groups of 30 or more Syrian refugees lying on tables in the sun. The neighborhood also holds last remnants of the Jewish Community of Athens. Tucked away among back roads and car repair shops there is a litter free street named “Melodoni” where a security guard stands in a booth near the middle of the street. On one side of the street is the only functioning Sephardic Synagogue in Athens.
