China's Soft Power Offensive
China's Soft Power OffensiveChina's Soft Power Offensive
A former U. S. Ambassador to Thailand recalls being asked to contribute an "America Corner" to a local university in Bangkok — i.e. a computer station and a few shelves of informational material about his country. When he arrived for the unveiling, however, he found that the modest corner endowed by the U.S. government was dwarfed by the Chinese donation of a whole new building, fully staffed, to house one of China's Confucius Institutes. Over the past decade, China has surged in its investments in "soft power" diplomacy. Since 2004, it has endowed more than 700 Confucius Institutes and class rooms globally, many of them here at American Universities. Not surprisingly, some of these have found that accepting funding from the People's Republic of China does not come without strings, but can threaten their academic freedom.

Soft power is a concept developed by Joseph Nye to describe the ability to attract and co-opt rather than coerce and rather than using force or money as a means of persuasion. The phrase was coined by Joseph Nye of Harvard University in a 1990 book, Bound to Lead: The Changing Nature of American Power. He further developed the concept in his 2004 book, Soft Power: The Means to Success in World Politics. The term is now widely used in international affairs by analysts and statesmen. For example, in 2007, CPC General Secretary Hu Jintao told the 17th Communist Party Congress that China needed to increase its soft power, and the US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates spoke of the need to enhance American soft power by "a dramatic increase in spending on the civilian instruments of national security--diplomacy, strategic communications, foreign assistance, civic action and economic reconstruction and development."
In 2010 Annette Lu, former vice-president of the Republic of China on Taiwan, visited South Korea and advocated the ROC's use of soft power as a model for the resolution of international conflicts.

Joseph Samuel Nye, Jr. (born January 19, 1937) is the co-founder, along with Robert Keohane, of the international relations theory neoliberalism, developed in their 1977 book Power and Interdependence. Together with Keohane, he developed the concepts of asymmetrical and complex interdependence. They also explored transnational relations and world politics in an edited volume in the 1970s. More recently, he pioneered the theory of soft power. His notion of "smart power" became popular with the use of this phrase by members of the Clinton administration, and more recently the Obama Administration. Nye is currently University Distinguished Service Professor at Harvard University, and previously served as dean of Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. He also serves as a Guiding Coalition member for the Project on National Security Reform.
The 2011 TRIP survey of over 1700 international relations scholars ranks Joe Nye as the sixth most influential scholar in the field of international relations in the past twenty years.
