The Samjiyon Orchestra as a North Korean Means for Gender Based Cultural Diplomacy
2020
In 2018 it appeared that a peace process on the Korean Peninsula had got underway.

Selection of the Samjiyon Orchestra for the Pyeongchang events sheds light on the kind of image the North Korean leadership wanted to display of the country on the international stage.

The European Green Deal encompasses two aspects spanning across the internal-external continuum.

In the shadow of technology
2016
The study of the cultural Cold War and East–West interaction outside diplomacy and high politics has emerged as an important research field during the last two decades. With a few exceptions, however, scholarly interaction has been overshadowed by other forms of interaction.

Even though Finland was a western-style democracy with a market economy, it had close political ties with the Soviet Union, which allowed for the devel…
Making Bishops in the Malta of the Knights, 1530-1798

The procedure for appointment, established by Charles v in 1530 when he granted Malta to the Order of St John, was the result of a compromise: safeguarding rights of royal patronage without undermining the independence of an international military order. It is important, however, to underline the reforming activity conducted by bishops appointed in such political ways, especially through the application of some institutions provided by the Council of Trent, such as diocesan synods.
