https://doi.org/10.37493/2307-910X.2025.3.21
Abstract
Introduction. The article explores the role of culture and cultural diplomacy as a means of shaping a state's international image. This role is linked to ensuring national security. Based on an analysis of contemporary theories of "soft power," cultural diplomacy, and the foreign policy of the Russian Federation, the institutional, sociocultural, and strategic aspects of culture as a factor of security and international positioning are examined. Special attention is given to the analysis of the activities of Russia's cultural diplomacy institutions, including Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Rossotrudnichestvo, the Russkiy Mir Foundation, and the Gorchakov Foundation. The article addresses the challenges and prospects for the development of cultural policy amid contemporary international transformations and sanctions pressure.
