John Brown, "Diplomacies, from Public to Pubic," Huffington Post (3/23/2016)

A valued comment on the above-cited HP article by scholar
Nicholas John Cull · Professor at USC Annenberg School for Communication:
John Brown raises valid concerns here. While it is not surprising that the concept of diplomacy has broadened since the days of Sir Harold Nicolson (after all the reality has broadened), the x-diplomacy meme needs a certain skepticism and not all its forms deserve the same regard for being a 'thing'. Moreover, analysts of public diplomacy might be wise to remember the preference of the distinguished writer on the subject Bruce Gregory for speaking of 'diplomacy's public aspects' rather than 'public diplomacy'. We writers in the field need to be mindful of our crutches, contractions and conventions and remember that just using a term does not make it so. Just because we need a headline on 'x-diplomacy' doesn't mean we can't unpack the term as 'the diplomatic aspects of x' in our text.

From a kind reader of the HP article:
"[F]ifth grade humor in the title and in one of the paragraphs. ... the inclusion of inappropriate humor."
Note: A "fifth-grade humor" article on this topic -- pubic diplomacy -- was posted at the USC Center on Public Diplomacy blog, under the title "Public Diplomacy Goes 'Pubic'" (2007). (Note mention in this piece of Miss Israel 2004, Gal Gadot, starring in the just-released "Batman vs. Superman.")

Updating began on 3/26/2016; some terms existed before that date

A) Recent terms (date refers to when the term was perhaps, but not certainly, first coined)

"A dip dick (art), diplomadick (your crowd) ..." (4/1/2016)

From a Facebook entry by prominent American artist Frank Williams, posted here with his kind permission, documenting his reaction to this blog's entry that artist Kiki Smith would be speaking in Canada under the State Department's "Art in Embassies" program.
