Contents/Summary

Summary
"Historians have so far uncovered the roots of many of the soft power initiatives launched to construct sincere solidarity between people, but we still know very little about their impact. In this publicacion, leading historians within the field trace the routes of selected initiatives from the center to the periphery - from UNESCO's headquarters in Paris to the member states - to assess UNESCO's global impact from World War II and up till today."
