Engaging Pakistan examines the role of British and American Public Diplomacy in Pakistan. It focuses on case studies located in two periods (1955-64 and 2008-12) during which there was both intense public diplomacy activity and increasing public hostility particularly towards the US. Putting forth this juxtaposition of the two periods, the study provides an opportunity for a fine grain analysis to contribute to wider theoretical and comparative studies of public diplomacy as well as provide valuable empirical material.The author argues that limitations in the effectiveness of public diplomacy arise whenever foreign audiences perceive that a state’s foreign policy actions are illegitimate and inconsistent with its publicly proclaimed values. US unreliability in the 1960s and unilateralism four decades later undermined its soft power, despite the successes of individual public diplomacy initiatives. Anti-Americanism in Pakistan is usually linked with the aftermath of 9/11, but the volume will reveal that public mistrust stretched as far back as the 1960s. The Pakistan public trusted Britain far more, so that even when unpopular policies were adopted, there was not such a steep decline in its standing. Despite less funding, UK public diplomacy initiatives operated in a more favourable environment than that of the US. The book focuses on five main areas of public diplomacy activities that generate soft power; namely, communication/ information activities; educational exchanges and assistance; volunteering; cultural performances and exhibitions; high profile visitors’ public engagement. These activities are examined in case studies from either a single time frame or covering both periods.A pioneering study of British and American Public Diplomacy in Pakistan in the early Cold War and later post 9/11 eras, this book will be of interest to researchers on Modern South Asia, international relations, public diplomacy, and diplomatic history, as well as those interested in wider subjects ranging from cold war studies to sports history.
