| dc.description.abstract | The aim of the paper is to investigate ping-pong diplomacy between
the Unites States and China, which was used by both countries as a diplomatic
tool, aimed at achieving political rapprochement despite ideological dissonance
and conflict over Taiwan. Both governments were seeking a way to establish
closer relations but the circumstances prevented them from traditional diplomatic
contacts. Sports exchange proved to be a convenient solution. In the
paper the Author attempts to verify a hypothesis on a subsequent legacy of
the ping-pong diplomacy in American foreign policy. The study allowed to
determine reasons for the need to employ sport in order to establish closer relations
between two hostile actors of international relations. It is an attempt to
answer a question concerning the intentional or coincidental character of the
analysed sports exchange. The paper is an empirical case study on one of the
prime examples of positive sports diplomacy and was conducted with the use
of decision-making. | pl_PL |
