Costa Rica's Nation Branding and the Diffusion of Costa Rica's Image in Japan
Lara Pineda Cinthia Rocio (Kobe Univ.) IMQ2022-11
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) National Branding has become an appealing strategy for countries that aim to boost the country's image internationally and attract more investment and tourism. Costa Rica is not the exception; Costa Rica's national brand (Essential Costa Rica, launched in 2013) has been recognized as a strong national brand and has been awarded in international contests. However, there is a lack of research that analyzes the diffusion of Costa Rica's information in Japan. Therefore, the aim of this study is to clarify whether the image Costa Rican government is trying to promote is being represented in Japanese media (specifically in the Asahi Shimbun, the Yomiuri Shimbun, and the Japan Broadcasting Corporation [NHK]). In conclusion, it was found that the Japanese newspaper articles and television programs related to Costa Rican tourism mainly focus on the environment itself, environmental protection, and the proper use of natural resources. Also, some of them pointed out that Costa Rica's tourism industry has a good balance between economy and environmental protection. However, topics related to Costa Rica's society and culture are rarely included in the contents.
