The way Phil Taylor saw propaganda and public diplomacy

Last time I had the privileged of presenting at a conference with Phil I was teasing him that he must have worked with, taught or worked on collections of essays with a large proportion of those scholars currently working in the fields of Public Diplomacy and Propaganda

As we talked about it I asked if he could think of someone in the UK he hadn’t worked with – he modestly smiled and said there were still a few…

From a personal perspective I was fortunate to have written an essay in a collection he edited and to edit a collection he contributed to. In both experiences I learned a lot.

I’m sure in the days ahead those who knew him better will write more eloquently than I. So I leave the writing to them. Instead, as a reflection of his vast experience, academic production, and the connections he made – this video maps the way he saw propaganda and public diplomacy, through the links in his website, as a tribute to the far reaching influence he had on the disciplines he studied.
