In the first major assessment of diplomatic dialogue since
Nicolson's Diplomacy in 1939, Adam Watson traces the changing
techniques of diplomacy from ancient times through the 'diplomatic
society' of Europe to the present global system. In examining the
conventions and institutions which help to shape the international
system the author aims not so much to preserve diplomatic order
which worked well in the past but rather to identify the
continuities and the new conditions which will enable the dialogue
to function in the future. He pays special attention to the
extension of the dialogue into new fields and to the impact of the
newly independent states of the third world. This leads him to
argue strongly that the world's growing interdependence has
increased rather than lessened the scope of diplomacy in the
nuclear age.
