In recent years, celebrities from George Clooney to Bono to Angelina Jolie have attempted to play an increasingly important role in global politics. Celebrity activism is an ever-growing, internationally visible phenomenon--yet the impact of these high-profile humanitarians on public awareness, government support, and mobilization of resources remains under-researched. Bringing together a diverse group of contributors from media studies and public diplomacy, "Transnational Celebrity Activism in Global Politics "aims to fill that void with a new interdisciplinary framework for the analysis of celebrity activism in international relations.
