Whereas hard power—the ability to coerce—grows out of a country's military or economic might, soft power arises from the attractiveness of its culture, political ideals, and policies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHard power remains crucial in a world of states trying to guard their independence and of non-state groups willing to turn to violence. But as a new administration—whether Republican or Democrat—maps out its foreign policy, Nye emphasizes the importance of husbanding our military power and nurturing our soft power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is soft power that will help prevent terrorists from recruiting supporters from among the moderate majority.
