Many pundits have argued that the Bush administration squandered the global goodwill expressed toward the U.S. in the months following September 11, 2001 by countering international opinion and invading the sovereign nation of Iraq. In what is viewed by many as an effort to rekindle this goodwill, First Lady Laura Bush recently announced a Global Cultural Initiative to “enhance and expand America’s Cultural Diplomacy efforts.”
The initiative is the work of the U.S. State Department, which is teaming with both public and private organizations to coordinate, enhance, and expand cultural outreach efforts.
