Abstract

Bu araştırmada kamu diplomasisi, Dış Politika
Analizi (DPA)’ne yeni bir analiz çerçevesi olarak sunulmaktadır. 21. yüzyıl
küresel siyasetinde sadece diplomatik ilişkiler, jeopolitik ve güç faktörlerinin
incelenmesi yetersiz kalmaktadır. Araştırma kamu diplomasisi; kamuoyu, sivil
toplum, yumuşak güç ve diplomasi olarak dört ana kavram üzerinden inşa
edilmiştir. Bu yaklaşım metodolojik olarak toplumsal değerleri, kültürleri ve
devletlerin dış politikalarını yeni analiz aracı olarak değerlendirmiştir. Kamu
diplomasisinin toplumsal aktörlere ve kamuoyuna öncelik vermesiyle klasik
DPA’dan ayrıldığı, analiz düzeyi ile birimlerin devlet-toplum olarak birleşmesiyle
de diplomasinin sosyalleştiği tezi ileri sürülmüştür. Yeni araç ve yöntemler
getirmenin yanında, toplumsal-kültürel öğelerin de katılarak paradigmatik
değişime yol açtığı savunulmuştur.

PUBLIC DIPLOMACY: A NEW FRAMEWORK FOR FOREIGN POLICY ANALYSIS

Abstract

This study introduces public diplomacy as a new framework for Foreign
Policy Analysis (FPA). The conceptual framework of public diplomacy was built
on four main concepts including public opinion, civil society, soft power and
diplomacy. Methodologically, public diplomacy offers social values, cultures
and foreign policies of states as a new analysis instrument. Ontologically, it
is different from the conventional FPA as it gives priority to social actors
and public opinion in foreign policy. Public diplomacy combines the level of
analysis in conventional FPA and the unit of analysis to be state-individual
(society) giving diplomacy a social aspect. Public diplomacy causes a
paradigmatic change by including social-cultural elements in addition to bring
new instruments and methods to the conventional field of foreign policy.
