The Public Diplomacy Of Other Countries:

Implications For The United States


In a survey of international -communication,
cultural and educational programs of the
United States and six other countries, GAO
reached these and other findings:

    --By comparison with allies and adver-
    saries, the U.S. Government investment
    in this field is low.

    --The U.S. can improve impact and effi-
    ciency of overseas programs by further
    cultivating cooperation with its allies.

    --While leading allies and adversaries put
    heavy emphasis on teaching their lan-
    guages to foreigners, the U. S. has ne-
    glected important opportunities in this
    field for more than a decade.
    --The present ban on the domestic avail-
    ability of International Communication
    Agency    products should    be
    re-examined.


--A periodic, public report and analysis
of aims, content, and methods of
'Soviet propaganda in and concerning
the United States would give the U.S.
press and public new perspective on
Soviet purposes.
