Public Diplomacy In Action

Sunday, November 28th 2010

The Eagle and the Elephant Here is an example of public diplomacy in action: The Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs has just published "The Eagle and the Elephant: Thai American Relations Since 1833" which was produced for the Thai Embassy in Washington by PDWorldwide (PDC Member Bill Kiehl's international consulting firm).   The book updates and expands upon a book originally produced by USIS Thailand with editions in 1982, 1983, 1987 and 1996. The book can only be obtained through the Thai Embassy, however, it is not for sale.

We welcome comments from our readers that advocate and shed light on the subject of public diplomacy. We avoid discussion that is politically partisan, commercial in nature or offensive, and the Council reserves the right to remove such comments.
