16063

The increase in the velocity and scope of international relations led the states to seek for a variety of instruments to carry out their relations. This change in the nature of international relations increased states’ need for credibility and hence, increased soft power’s importance. States have started to perform public diplomacy and science has been considered as one of its the most influential tools given the abundance of ways to establish relationship between the scientific communities and the states. Accordingly, because the exchange of science and technology across borders has offered many opportunities for the development of enduring relationships among people from different nations, science diplomacy came out as an important way of developing collaborative relationships between states.
