This book analyzes ways how three fringe players of the modern diplomatic order - the Holy See, the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and the EU - have been accommodated within that order, revealing that the modern diplomatic order is less state-centric than conventionally assumed and is instead better conceived of as a heteronomy.

Political entities use culture to support their soft power potential, generate goodwill, to frame international agenda in particular ways. This book features historical case studies ranging from European 'civilizing' engagement with 19th Century China to uses of Abstract Expressionism as an instrument in the ideological struggles of the Cold War.
