Editor's Note: The Decline of the Soft Power of the United States of America مقاله

خلاصه ماشینی:

I want to draw your attention, dear young people, correctly to this point -[because] the future affairs of this country are in your hands, you must pay attention to these things- now, setting aside the discussion of the Iran-US challenge, when we look at the situation of America in a broader view, we see that America's power, authority, and hegemony in the world are declining and decaying; over the years, it has been constantly decreasing. » "Joseph Nye", one of the American liberal thinkers, in an article based on this poll, has described America's soft power in the global arena as being in decline. History of America's Soft Power With the collapse of the Soviet Union, despite possessing military hard power comparable to America's power, and the declaration of the end of history by "Francis Fukuyama", some American liberal thinkers such as Joseph Nye, who also served as an advisor in the Clinton administration, emphasized for the first time in an article in Foreign Policy magazine the necessity of paying attention to soft power instead of relying entirely on hard power. Higher education and the efforts of young people from all over the world to study at American universities have been one of the sources of this country's soft power. American news media have significant influence in most parts of the world and are actually the source of spreading this country's soft power. The most important reasons for the decline of America's soft power are the type of American behavior, which, according to Joseph Nye, can even drive America's allies away from this country.
