Prof. Joseph Nye

Dr. Nye began his political career as Deputy Undersecretary of State for the Jimmy Carter administration (1977), then served as Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs and Chair of the National Intelligence Council for the Bill Clinton administration (1994), and as a Foreign Policy Committee Member for the Barack Obama administration (2009).Based on his experience in politics and academia, he coined the "soft power" concept, which is the ability to persuade others to achieve outcomes and gain political power without the use of force or coercion. Later on, "soft power" became a core policy for culture, economics, and diplomacy during the Clinton and Obama administrations.
