Diplomacy for the 21st Century: Science and Technology
2015
This report makes recommendations for the U.S. Department of State on why and how to leverage science and technology. The report, from the National Research Council, assesses and makes recommendations concerning the changing environment for the conduct of diplomacy in the years ahead, with a focus on the role of science and technology in the development and implementation of U.S. policies and programs. It urges adoption of a broader whole-of-society approach in carrying out responsibilities at home and abroad—extending beyond traditional interagency coordination and the narrow band of current external partners, to include foundations, universities, research centers, and other groups who are extending their international reach. The report will be useful for both policy leaders in U.S. governance organizations as well as students interested in learning about how to enhance the effectiveness of such organizations.
