About PD
Public diplomacy is at its best when scholars are in conversation with practitioners, and PD intends to host that dialogue. The publication promises to address the challenges and issues of public diplomacy, not only for the United States, but wherever it is relevant in the world. It will feature the voices of practitioners and scholars with divergent perspectives, but whose unified goal is the continued evolution of the field.
PD is a publication of the Association of Public Diplomacy Scholars, edited by graduate students in the Masters of Public Diplomacy program at USC. It is published with support from the USC Center on Public Diplomacy and the School of International Relations.
PD will be published bi-annually, with an accompanying web mag.azine, http://publicdiplomacymagazine.com/.
