Soft Power- Where does the name come from?

"the moving force of history was, in the past, "hard power"- in the form of military might, political authority and wealth. What we have seen in recent years, however, is a decrease in the relative importance of this factor, and in its stead a remarkable increase in the importance of "soft power"- factors such as knowledge and information, culture, ideas and systems."

Daisaku Ikeda at Harvard University, Boston, USA on September 26, 1991
