“In the midst of a pandemic, the choice of the name ‘Sputnik V’ for the Russian vaccine is not fortuitous. The same applies to the glamorous sequel to the Apollo space flights, which followed the Moon landing, or the grandiose names coined by either Chinese or European scientific authorities to promote their respective latest advancements. Boosting their prestige was among the goals intended. But so-called Science Diplomacy goes beyond those branding efforts, including the often complex relations between states, non-state actors, and scientific personnel. Dr. del Canto Viterale’s groundbreaking volume provides a comprehensive understanding of how that realm of international relations has evolved in the last decades.” — Francisco Rodriguez-Jimenez, Professor at University of Extremadura, Spain, and member of the Executive committee of the THINK TANK in Global Studies, at University of Salamanca, Spain
