on Foreign Relations, Report of an Independent Task Force
on Public Diplomacy (July 2002)
"Examples of misunderstood or misguided policies include
the rejections of... the agreement to create the International
Criminal Court.... Let us be clear: public diplomacy is
not a matter of seeking foreign public approval to drive
U.S. policy, nor is it simply an effort to win popularity.
Rather, it involves a baseline recognition that foreign
attitudes and understanding affect the success or failure
of U.S. policies."
