Text IV

1 ____ The basic instruments of public diplomacy are hardly
new. The United States, for example, has conducted
educational and cultural exchange programs for almost
4 sixty years. Cultural diplomacy is usually an exercise in
deferred gratification, since such exchange programs typically
don’t offer immediate or obvious payoffs. Instead, programs
7 such as the Fulbright educational exchanges represent a
long-term strategic investment in establishing mutual trust and
understanding. Similarly, the US information programs
10 overseas have a long pedigree: the daily Washington File
(formerly the Wireless File) began operation in the State
Department in 1935 after an ambassador complained that the
13 slow distribution of official information was “about as useful
as a Roman ruin in a fast-changing world”.
The flow of information since has neither slowed nor
16 stopped changing. In recent months, the biggest internal
change, of course, has been integration. Public diplomacy
programs, once administered by the US Information Agency,
19 are now integrated into the Department of State under the
Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs.
Moreover, public diplomacy officers serve in each of the
22 Department’s regional and functional bureaus and in public
affairs sections of the embassy.
