Инструментализация антисемитизма в контексте российско-украинского конфликта
Translated Title: Instrumentalization of Antisemitism in the Context of the Russian-Ukrainian Conflict
Author(s): Лихачев, Вячеслав Андреевич
Date: 2020
Topics: Conflict, Diplomacy, Antisemitism, Main Topic: Antisemitism, War
Abstract: Статья посвящена анализу инструментального использования темы антисемитизма в официальном дискурсе и информационно-пропагандистских кампаниях, сопровождавших обострение российско-украинских отношений и начало вооруженного конфликта весной 2014 г. Анализ свидетельствует о чрезвычайно важном месте, которое занимала гиперболизированная проблема антисемитизма в обосновании активного российского вмешательства в политические процессы в Украине. Эта проблематика рассматривается в историческом контексте: в статье прослеживаются истоки информационных кампаний, инструментализующих антисемитизм в контексте российско-украинских отношений в предшествовавшие годы. Автор указывает на постепенный рост значения этой темы, а также анализирует причины, по которым она приобрела столь важное значение в ходе российско-украинского конфликта. Кроме того автор обращает внимание на опасность инструментализации темы антисемитизма в пропагандистской риторике и социально-событийной инженерии, поскольку это может привести к реальному усилению антисемитизма
Education Policy as Normative Discourse and Negotiated Meanings: Engaging the Holocaust in Estonia
Author(s): Stevick, Doyle E.
Date: 2010
Topics: Diplomacy, Holocaust Education, Holocaust Commemoration, Holocaust Memorials, Main Topic: Holocaust and Memorial
Abstract: This article uses a socio-cultural approach to analyze the formation and implementation of Estonia's Holocaust Day Policy, a day of both commemoration for victims of the Holocaust and other crimes against humanity, and education about the Holocaust. It investigates both the multi-level development of the policy in light of external pressure (from foreign advocates and transnational groups including NATO and the Council of Europe) and the ways in which policy as normative discourse was constructed and its meanings negotiated between international sources, the national government, and educators. It draws attention to the multifaceted nature of discourse in a post-authoritarian context where power disparities further complicate an already complex trans-national policy environment.

Public diplomacy and domestic engagement: The Jewish revival in Poland
Author(s): Just, Thomas
Date: 2015
Topics: Jewish Revival, Jewish Culture, Diplomacy, Jewish - Non - Jewish Relations, Politics, Main Topic: Other
Abstract: Reconciling controversial national histories with future goals is a common challenge for many countries. Public diplomacy, however, has become a strategy to combat negative perceptions and build international credibility. Research in this area has primarily focused on public diplomacy campaigns’ effects on foreign populations. However, the existing literature has thus far not sufficiently addressed the relationship between public diplomacy and domestic constituencies. This analysis attempts to fill this void in the literature and demonstrate that engagement with a domestic constituency can add credibility to a country’s public diplomacy campaign. As a case study, this article examines the public diplomacy of Poland beginning with its efforts to achieve accession to the European Union, explains the mechanism that connects public diplomacy to the domestic society and analyzes the effects observed from this case – notably the revival of Jewish culture in Polish society. This study also demonstrates reductions in anti-Semitic attitudes among Poles by using survey data acquired throughout the country’s public diplomacy campaign. These findings demonstrate that public diplomacy engagement with a domestic constituency can indeed have remarkable impacts that help build diplomatic credibility and ease international concerns about a country’s past.
