摘要:The digitalization of modern society makes its adjustments to absolutely all business processes. Cultural diplomacy today plays an essential role in the implementation of foreign policy. In practice, this can not only serve as a useful tool for the realization of state interests abroad in the field of cultural policy but can also contribute to the creation of favourable conditions for the significant achievement of foreign policy goals of the state in other areas (for example, the economic field). Cultural diplomacy can become a more valuable tool for the state in the future and a more significant component of public diplomacy implementation. It helps the government influence foreign audiences in the long run as a good reserve to gain support for its policies. There are several tools that the state uses to implement cultural diplomacy, through which it maintains contact with foreign audiences and tries to teach its social norms in other cultures.The development of information technology and global digitalization, when cultural innovations become impossible without information and info-communication support, pushes the process of cultural diplomacy, automating the performance of functions and related operations.In the article, the authors examined the definition of the term "cultural diplomacy", analyzed the dynamics of its development and conceptual apparatus, as well as the impact of digitalization on the processes of cultural diplomacy. In their study, the authors revealed that digital technologies are becoming more and more critical for diplomatic processes. Still, Ukraine is not yet using them enough, as well as its huge potential of culture and art to form an attractive image of the state. Therefore, the authors were offered a set of useful cultural diplomacy tools for building and strengthening modern international relations.
