SUMMARY:Russia and Latvia: A Case of Sharp Power
DESCRIPTION:Elliott School of International Affairs | In-Person Event \nDescription: This book explores Russia’s relations with Latvia\, arguing that Latvia\, with a higher proportion of Russian speakers than other Baltic states\, is especially vulnerable to Russia’s “sharp power”. The book highlights how authoritarian and totalitarian regimes are unable to exercise soft power based on the attractiveness of the country’s culture and values\, which would help them gain the favor of the audience of the target countries\, but instead\, as in the case of Russia\, use public diplomacy\, compatriot policy\, media policy\, propaganda\, and disinformation to produce a destructive effect\, distorting the democracies of target countries and increasing national security risks. The book provides in-depth detail on how Russia is making use of this “sharp power” in Latvia\, examines the consequences and assesses the dangers for the future. \nThe registration link can be found below.
