Use of Hollywood as a Soft Power Tool in Foreign Policy Strategy of the United States of America
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Hollywood, producing ideology as a psychological means in the foreign policy of the United States ever since, communicates with its target audience non-stop. Hollywood, which globally engages to inject America’s image into the minds of people, is an entertainment vehicle facilitating the transmission of social and political messages of the United States. Hollywood tells the culture of Americans, justifies that democratic values are needed in the world, and attempts to put the lifestyles of foreign public in the social and politics fields into a form that is proper to American values. The United States starts to apply opinions and philosophical arguments making up its soft power through Hollywood in foreign policy. In this study, Hollywood will be examined as a soft power tool in the foreign policy of the United States based on concrete examples, and its significance in terms of American foreign policy will be evaluated.
