Soft Power Media, also known as soft news or soft media. refers to media content that aims to influence an audience through persuasion and influence by focusing on primarily cultural and lifestyle topics such as entertainment, and human interest as opposed to “Hard Media” which conveys political or economic issues.

The concept first emerged from the term “soft power” which was coined in the 1980’s by Joseph Nye, an American political scientist.  Later expanding with the rise of television and magazines. It is used to describe the use of media content in influencing audiences through persuasion rather than coercion.

It is utilized by countries to shape the perception of international and domestic audiences, through the depictions of their values, cultures, and reputation, as well as their cultural exports, information dissemination, and entertainment. Whereas, ‘hard power’ relies on military and economic forces.

States aim to build “cultural capital” and foster a favorable international image that can indirectly support their foreign policy goals. With the advent of the digital age, soft power media has evolved into “Soft Power 2.0”, characterized by the use of social media algorithms, digital influencers, and transnational streaming platforms to reach global audiences directly.

“Soft news” refers to a style of journalism centered on human-interest stories, entertainment-centered, celebrity culture narratives, often blurring the lines between information and infotainment. In the context of global geopolitics, soft media serves as a tool for public diplomacy, allowing nations to engage in “nation branding.”

In materials science and nanotechnology, a nanobursa (also nanobursa mesh) is a class of hierarchically graded, nanofibrous composite material in which sequential layers of porous polymeric nanofibers encapsulate carbon nanotubes (CNTs) that are surface-functionalized with distinct metal nanoparticles in each layer. The name is derived from the Latin bursa ("sac" or "pouch"), reflecting the encapsulating, sac-like relationship of the polymeric shell around the nanotube core. The material was introduced in 2014 by researchers at the Stevens Institute of Technology (Hoboken, New Jersey), with Dilhan M. Kalyon as the corresponding author and principal investigator.

Nanobursa meshes are fabricated by a hybrid process combining twin-screw extrusion with electrospinning, enabling continuous, industrially-scalable production. Demonstrated realizations include graded layers bearing palladium (Pd), cobalt (Co), silver (Ag), and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles. Principal targeted application domains are heterogeneous catalysis (notably hydrocarbon oxidation), filtration, and tissue engineering scaffolds.
