摘要

这篇文章探讨了文化外交的动态。它侧重于印度-尼日利亚外交的社会文化方面。它认为,自从尼日利亚和印度之间的关系开始以来,社会接触一直在增加,从而加强了文化外交。它确立了作为英国殖民统治的产物,两国都拥有促进两国团结的某些社会和文化遗产。这一共同的历史影响了它们的文化、艺术、法律、教育和媒体机构。该研究认为,文化作为一种元素,可以作为外交工具投射到国界之外。从本质上讲,人口约13.7亿的印度和人口约2亿的非洲最大国家尼日利亚是两个不同的国家。然而,他们有很多历史遗产将他们联系在一起。这些都是过去英国殖民主义的经历,争取民族独立的斗争,以及继续保留英语作为官方语言。本文提供了一个机会来探讨两国的共同遗产,以及这些遗产如何影响和塑造两国外交政策目标的轮廓。本文除引言和结语外,共分为五个部分。第一部分探讨了印度和尼日利亚的文化概念和文化生活。第二个方面考察了文化认同和国家利益,而第三个方面侧重于通过文化促进国家利益。第四和第五部分讨论了尼日利亚的观众和宝莱坞,以及宝莱坞对尼日利亚文学的影响。

The Dynamics of Cultural Diplomacy: A Discourse of Indo-Nigerian Socio-cultural Relations from the 1960s to the Present
This article interrogates the dynamics of cultural diplomacy. It focusses on the socio-cultural aspect of Indo-Nigerian diplomacy. It argues that since the beginning of the relations between Nigeria and India, the social contacts have been on the increase thereby reinforcing cultural diplomacy. It establishes that as creations of British colonial rule, both countries possess certain social and cultural legacies that foster unity between them. This common history has influenced their cultural, artistic, legal, educational and media institutions. The study argues that culture works as an element that can be projected beyond national boundaries as an instrument of diplomacy. Essentially, India, with a population of about 1.37 billion inhabitants, and Nigeria, the largest country in Africa with a population of about 200 million, are two different countries. Nevertheless, they have much in their historical legacy that connects them. These are past experience of British colonialism, struggle for national independence, and continued retention of English as their official language. The article provides an opportunity to explore the common heritage of the two countries and how the heritage influences and shapes the contours of their foreign policy goals. It is organised in five parts excluding the introduction and conclusion. The first part explores the concept of culture and cultural life in India and Nigeria. The second examined cultural identity and national interest, while the third aspect focussed on advancing national interest through culture. The fourth and fifth parts discussed Nigerian audience and Bollywood as well as the impact of Bollywood on Nigerian literature.
