And how should the U.S. government relate to the generators of soft power in civil society -- including everything from Hollywood to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation?


Does it mean the world wide influence of American movies and philanthopy of Gates, etc.?

Yes. The word "including" tells you that Hollywood and Bill Gates are two examples of "soft power".

@fansy,
Yes. The kind of power Gates and Hollywood have relies on persuasion rather than coercion. Therefore, it's "soft" power.
