Abstract
The present research addresses the importance of the use of scientific diplomacy as a tool of international politics under an approach of what has been called soft power, which has been used particularly by emerging middle powers, such as the Republic of Korea (in hereinafter Korea), taking as a case study the foreign policy strategy for scientific and technological cooperation implemented between the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) with some priority countries in Africa and Latin America.
