Description
Spinning the World examines the pivotal role that public relations professionals played in shaping American foreign relations during the 20th century. Andrew Johnstone provides a comprehensive analysis of how PR campaigns, propaganda, and strategic communications influenced U.S. foreign policy decisions and international perceptions of America.
The book traces the evolution of public diplomacy and reveals how corporations, government agencies, and private firms collaborated to construct narratives about American power and values. Through detailed historical research, Johnstone demonstrates that PR was not merely peripheral to foreign relations but central to how America projected itself globally.
Part of the Cambridge Studies in US Foreign Relations series, this work offers valuable insights into the intersection of business, media, and diplomacy. It challenges readers to understand how manufactured narratives have shaped geopolitical outcomes and American influence on the world stage.
