This volume breaks new ground in exploring how international education has influenced the history of U.S. foreign relations. Diplomatic and cultural historians as well as historians of education examine how Americans-private citizens, philanthropists, and government officials-have used education to build empire, to promote peace, and to sell American values and ideas around the world. Yet this volume also demonstrates that foreign governments have drawn on American educational concepts to strengthen their own states and scholarly exchange to influence their diplomatic relations with the United States, while students have contributed to international relations in important and sometimes unexpected ways.
