OK
I'll try my definition of "soft" power- winning hearts and minds without complicating just first thing that crosses my mind !
First that crosses my mind is ;
"American Dream" !!
Simple slogan that symbolizes possibility available to even poorest among us to go somewhere (to USA) and have successes in life !
And get filthy rich as result .
And all that to achieve only by determination and nothing else !
Just if one is really determined with no other condition needed !
Actually ALL is about COLLECTIVE subconscious! And hidden desire to find paradise on earth!
And when country has enough people capable to believe in that dream - that situation can generate extraordinary collective energy within every and any nation capable to reach so deep into that collective consciousness that liberates extraordinary creative energy ! And creates also huge magnet for all kinds of creative people from rest of the world to go to that country and start life...
And that creates PROGRESS !
To create permanent "soft" power country MUST reach to our dreams and imagination more than anything else!
Country must make us to DREAM about her !
Well that is it I hope I didn't say something stupid
