В отличие от иных творцов, Ефим Михайлович Шабшай работает по совершенно новой системе взаимодействия с публикой. Суть всех performances не просто в их успешном проведении и залпе аплодисментов, а в том, чтобы зритель действительно получил удовольствие от увиденного. Но, удовольствие, пожалуй, не самая первая забота творца… Как известно, гениальные люди, всегда отличаются творческим и индивидуальным подходом к тому, чем они занимаются. Ведь их род деятельности, то, что они делают, то, что они привносят в этот мир и есть они … «Театр Ефима Шабшай» разительно отличается не только по избранным тематикам представлений, но и по избранным методам коммуникации со зрителями. В театре достаточно давно культивировали привычку создавать общие посиделки, после проведенного спектакля, в уютной обстановке. Участие в обсуждениях принимают, как зрители. Так и сами актёры, главные герои пьесы. Плодотворное общение на дружеских тонах позволяет понять истинное отношение зрителя к просмотренной премьере. Поскольку все спектакли Ефима Михайловича уникальны и включают в себя театр символов, довольно непростой для понимания и глубоко затрагивающий подсознательное в психологии человеке, постоянная коммуникация и feedbacks театралов позволяют совершенствовать своё творчество. В тоже время и сами зрители могут стать ближе к искусству, пообщавшись с творцом лично! Именно подобная работа позволяет уникальным образом производить полноценный Upgrade мировоззрения! http://shabshai-theater.com
Полгода назад мне очень повезло, наткнулась на сайт Фатимы Евглевской: http://fatimagiya.ru/ . У меня были проблемы в личной жизни, поэтому я искала настоящего мага, но попадались одни шарлатаны, на деньги разводили, а работу не делали, а Фатима меня поразила точной диагностикой, она сказала все по картам ТАРО. Я ей поверила, и не зря, через пару недель работы моя личная жизнь обрела новые яркие краски, с любимым я помирилась, и мы уже три месяца не расстаемся... Это здорово!

The “Sino-Global Discourse" is an international conference held by the Institute for Cultural Diplomacy in cooperation with other leading organizations. The objective of the conference is to examine the growing prominence of China on the world stage, the opportunities for global development that this presents, and how China can maintain its robust economic growth and social evolution to benefit the global environment. The 2011 conference will bring together renowned speakers from across the world for varied discourse, proceeding from the premise that China's future has the potential to result in a seismic shift in global politics.
The issues raised during the conference will be discussed from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives and academic backgrounds, examining the issues that are currently defining the internal and external development of China. Key historical relationships will be analyzed, new strategic partnerships considered, and experts will offer their views on what path China should follow on the international stage, highlighting areas of global agreement and areas where greater cooperation is needed.

In practical terms, the application of cultural diplomacy and soft power as tools in international relations will be considered in detail.

The International Symposium on Cultural Diplomacy in the USA 2011 “The Roles and Responsibilities of the US and Europe in a Changing World Order and Digital Revolution: Evaluating the Political, Economic, and Cultural Dimensions” (Washington, D.C., 18th-21st May 2011) wwwicd-international-symposium-usa.org
The 2011 conference will focus on the theme “The Roles and Responsibilities of the US and Europe in the New Global Community”. The theme was selected in recognition of two significant developments in the field of international relations. Firstly: The development of a new global community with new players, both at the sub-state and inter-state level, and new forms of influence and power. Secondly, the emergence of new, global challenges: The developments in the Arab World, Climate change disasters, financial instability, terrorism, and the prevention of health pandemics, are all areas of activity that require the community to build sustainable, multilateral approaches.
In recognition of these developments, there is a demonstrable need to analyze and reflect on the activity of the US and Europe within this new context, and in addressing these new challenges. The conference will therefore begin with an assessment of the new global community: How has it been formed, how does it operate, and what changes are we likely see in the future. Following this, the focus will move to a consideration of the key challenges facing the global community today, from climate change and natural disasters to cultural differences. Finally, the program will build on these discussions to reflect on the positions of the US and Europe in this changing international environment and: What do their international partners expect of the US and Europe, and how can they forge stronger relations with countries in all regions to ensure the cooperation necessary to tackle the challenges ahead?
Symposium Participants>> The Symposium is open to applications from diplomatic and political representatives, civil society practitioners, private sector figures, journalists, young professionals, students and scholars, and other interested stakeholders in international relations from across the world.

Program Agenda
Nuestra America "Latin America and the Global Economy: The Future of Nation Branding, Tourism and International Investment in Latin America" (Berlin, March 9th - 12th, 2011, Held Parallel to the ITB Berlin) wwwicd-cdla.org
The years 2009-2011 mark the two hundred year anniversaries of the beginning of many Latin American Independence movements. It was two centuries ago that Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Bolivia, Ecuador, Paraguay and Venezuela declared their independence. The years 1809-1811 therefore represent an important turning point in the history of Latin America, resulting in the emergence of new nation states and constituting the first step in the process of breaking from European colonial rule. The nature of this process remains an important talking point today.
As Latin American and the world celebrate these anniversaries, important questions remain as to how individual countries and the region as a whole should address challenges in the areas of poverty, development, security, public health, and national and international politics. Furthermore, current relations between Latin America, the USA and Europe, and the role that other regions and international stakeholders can play in supporting Latin America, remain fundamental issues to be clarified.
In ensuring stable economic and societal development, Latin American countries will rely heavily on their international images. A strong national brand will encourage tourism, investment, the immigration and retention of intellectual elites, and will enable a country to play more influential role in regional and global politics. Understanding and strengthening how their nation’s brand is understand, and can be shaped, is therefore one of the most important challenges facing governments, private companies, and civil societies in the region and abroad.
To enable academic analysis of the subject, and provide a platform for discussion on related fields, the ICD will host “Nuestra America” to explore the concept of nation branding and how Latin American governments, companies, and other stakeholders can engage with it.
Certificate of Attendance All conference participants will be awarded an official certificate of attendance upon completion of the program, which will provide details of the speakers who took part and the topics discussed. Each certificate will be signed by two members of the ICD’s Advisory Board. (The ICD Advisory Board list can be found here).
Speakers The speakers during the program will consist of experts and stakeholders in the Latin American Region from the fields of international politics, diplomacy, academia, the private sector, and civil society, from Latin America and across the world.
Participants The conference is open to young professionals, students and scholars, diplomatic and political representatives, journalists, and civil society practitioners with an active interest in Latin America, from across the world.
Participant Papers The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy encourages research and progressive thought into the fields of culture, globalization and international relations. In this regard, the ICD welcomes participants of the Conference to submit papers on this subject. The papers can cover any topic within these fields, according to your own particular interests and passions. Participants can submit work that they have completed in the past for other purposes, ongoing research or a paper written specifically for the conference. Groups of students are also allowed to submit collaborative pieces of work.

The Language of Art and Music: “An International Symposium on the Potential for Artistic Expression to Cross Cultural Barriers” (International Conference, Berlin, 17th - 20th February, 2011) wwwicd-languageofartandmusic.org
The use of culture and art to promote dialogue and understanding is a field that, though the subject of much scholarly attention, has had little impact on the behavior and activities of national governments and other stakeholders in international relations. Moreover, whilst there is a widespread agreement of the value of culture and art in raising awareness of cultural differences, there is less understanding of the potential for culture and art to offer a neutral platform for mutual cultural exchange, to transform cultural differences and unite people through emotions. "The Language of Art and Music" will work to bridge the gap between theory and practice by bringing together artists with academic experts from the field and key figures in international relations to discuss the importance of these artistic disciplines.
