In the wake of the Great Depression, one of Franklin Roosevelt’s most successful New Deal programs was the formation of the Tennessee Valley Authority, a federal government owned corporation created in 1933 to revitalize the Tennessee River Valley. The TVA provided navigation, flood control, electricity generation, strategic materials for national defense, economic development, unemployment relief, and an overall improvement of living conditions in this once-impoverished rural area. The TVA Architects Office built a huge number of structures during the late 1930s and early 1940s, including the many dams that dramatically altered life in the Tennessee River Valley. Its design agenda was comprehensive, addressing all scales of design from door handles to landscape with equal dedication. The Tennessee Valley Authority: Design and Persuasion

Machineries of persuasion European soft power and public diplomacy during the Cold War


Free Download No Contributor, "Machineries of persuasion : European soft power and public diplomacy during the Cold War"
English | 2019 | ISBN: 3110557924 | EPUB | pages: 350 | 4.4 mb
Over the last two decades, public diplomacy has become a central area of research within Cold War studies. Yet, this field has been dominated by studies of the United States’ soft power practices. However, the so-called ‘cultural dimension’ of the Cold war was a much more multifaceted phenomenon. Little attention has been paid to European actors’ efforts to safeguard a wide range of strategic and political interests by seducing foreign publics. This book includes a series of works which examine the soft power techniques used by various European players to create a climate of public opinion overseas which favored their interests in the Cold war context. This is a relevant book for three reasons. First, it contains a wide variety of case studies, including Western and Eastern, democratic and authoritarian, and core and peripheral European countries. Second, it pays attention to little studied instruments of public diplomacy such as song contests, sport events, tourism and international solidarity campaigns. Third, it not only concentrates on public diplomacy programs deployed by governments, but also on the role played by some non-official actors in the cultural Cold War in Europe
