Finally the paper provides an analysis of the deduced theoretical framework which subsequently has been developed and expanded with the new theoretical aspects. Methodology: The paper presents the output of qualitative case study research of the Nation Branding initiatives of Sweden and Germany. An abductive approach was used whereby a deduced framework has been used which subsequently has been expanded through induction. Empirical foundation
