The use of smart power as contextual intelligence of international actors.
Abstract
Globalization, the information revolution and democratization are long term trends that change the macro context of political and organizational leadership in post-industrial societies and bring new challenges and threats. It is due to a nascence of new diverse actors of international relations and the absence of balance between them. The new world order is a unipolar system where the USA dominates and other developed countries try to compensate this dominance in different ways. Actually, state power consists of complex of various realms (political, economic, cultural, informational, military etc.) and ability to form smart strategies that combine the tools of both hard and soft power.References
