This study analyzes the official German and American cultural, educational, and information work activities from the mid-1950s to the late 1960s in an effort to show that cultural diplomacy deserves more scholarly attention as an element that influenced the quality, stability, and flexibility of German-American relations. Closely following foreign policy objectives, both countries' cultural diplomatic efforts underlined the transformation from dependency to interdependency, which their relationship underwent during this crucial period of time.

Rezensionen
"This book is at its best in describing how the programmes developed, the way they functioned in relation to foreign policies, and how they were transformed over time. Aguilar does a fine job of sorting out the complicated bureaucratic and public-private relationships characteristic of cultural and informational diplomacy in both countries." (Frank Ninkovich, The International History Review)
