An example of good practice is the approach of the National Academy of the Security Service of Ukraine, which was among the first in the security and defence sector of the state to become a platform for the formation of the scientific and practical school on StratCom. This process was carried out based on the following principles: building a &amp;ldquo;single voice&amp;rdquo; communication with security and government institutions, scientists, civil society representatives, journalists, and volunteers; establishing a scientific and practical discourse on strategic communications based on the concepts of &amp;ldquo;national values,&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;truth,&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;trust&amp;rdquo;; implementation of the &amp;ldquo;say-do&amp;rdquo; approach; promoting professional legal support and linguistic expertise of the information environment; focusing on practical results of scientific and educational activities; training of personnel in the field of strategic communications capable of working effectively at the strategic, operational and tactical levels. This approach aims to ensure the systematic implementation of strategic communications both at the institutional and the state levels.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">69</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Judith Reid</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Defense Against Negative Strategic Communications</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Connections: The Quarterly Journal</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Central Europe</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">culture</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eastern Europe</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hofstede</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">propaganda</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">strategic communications</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Summer 2018</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">17</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">52-60</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Strategic messaging is ever more important in the age of explosive social media, and not all information on the Internet is benign. Negative information campaigns were used by Hitler in the Austrian Anschluss, and more recently by Vladimir Putin in the annexation of Crimea and the conflicts in Donetsk and Luhansk. Similarly, seeds of public dissent and discord have been entering through Russian trolls and bots into American social media.
Central and Eastern European countries are particularly vulnerable to negative messaging from Russia, or even from terrorist groups. This article delves into cultural paradigms of the US, Russia and numerous Central and Eastern European societies to uncover cultural areas of vulnerability to outside influences; how the cultural underpinnings of power, competition, individualism, uncertainty avoidance, long term orientation and indulgence can highlight openings to negative influences. It concludes with ideas for nations to guard against unwanted information attacks.
