KÜLTÜREL DİPLOMASİ: KURAM VE PRATİKTEKİ ÇERÇEVESİ

Öz

Kültürel diplomasi, kamu diplomasinin
bir alt başlığını oluşturmaktadır. Bir ülkenin yumuşak gücü o ülkenin siyasal
değerleri, kültürü ve dış politikası tarafından belirlenmektedir. Kültür bu
nedenle önemli bir öğe olarak yer almaktadır. Kültürün tam olarak ne olduğuna
dair kesin bir oydaşma olmamakla birlikte ulusal kültürün pek çok öğesinin
diplomasi amaçlı kullanıldığı bilinmektedir. Kültürel diplomasi makalede
devletin kendi itibarını arttırma ve ilişki kurma amacıyla dolaylı ve doğrudan
kontrol ettiği kültürel etkinliklerin sunumu olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu
çalışma kültürel diplomasinin Dışişleri Bakanlıkları tarafından ne şekilde
algılandığı sorusuna odaklanmış ve örneklem olarak seçilen Dışişleri
Bakanlıkları internet sitelerinden sunulan metinleri içerik analizi yöntemiyle
kategorize ederek sınıflandırma amacını gütmüştür. Kültürel diplomasinin
sınırları iki kaynaktan beslenmektedir. Birincisi alandaki akademik çalışmalar
ve ikincisi kültürel diplomasinin devlet örgütlenmesi içinde konunun
sorumluluğunu üstlenmiş olan Dışişleri Bakanlıklarıdır. Fransa, Almanya, İtalya
ve Türkiye Dışişleri Bakanlıklarının internet sitelerindeki kültürel diplomasi
içeriklerine göre incelenerek kültürel diplomasi etkinliklerinin sınırları
ortaya koyulmaya çalışılmıştır. İnternet sitelerinden elde edilen veriler
sonucunda sanat, eğitim ve profesyonel ilişkiler başlıkları kültürel
diplomasinin alt başlıkları olarak ortaya çıkmıştır.
