{"product_id":"national-relations-nikolas-glover-9789185509669","title":"National Relations: Public Diplomacy, National Identity and the Swedish Institute, 1945-1970","description":"In Stockholm in January of 1945, an assembly of Swedish diplomats and businessmen initiated an organization that was to improve the country's reputation abroad. The new, semi-governmental Swedish Institute was charged with explaining Sweden's policy of neutrality during the war, with encouraging peace-building, and with promoting foreign trade in the new international world order. Original and insightful, this account analyzes the policies, funding, and national narratives of the Swedish Institute. Providing a historical perspective on the politics of Swedish propaganda and explaining how ideas of communication shaped the Institute's work and its representations of Sweden, this record also offers a comparative perspective on American national identity and its inherent notions of national exceptionalism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nikolas Glover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9185509663\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789185509669\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nordic Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.01lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.60w x 0.80d","brand":"Nikolas Glover","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450167734527,"sku":"9789185509669","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b1c5001b-7093-4fa3-a0fe-baae7d5a835e.jpg?v=1777266496","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/national-relations-nikolas-glover-9789185509669","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
