This book aims to redefine maritime diplomacy for the modern era.
Maritime diplomacy encompasses a spectrum of activities, from
co-operative measures such as port visits, exercises and
humanitarian assistance to persuasive deployment and coercion. It
is an activity no longer confined to just navies, but in the modern
era is pursued be coast guards, civilian vessels and non-state
groups. As states such as China and India develop, they are
increasingly using this most flexible form of soft and hard power.
Maritime Diplomacy in the 21st Century describes and analyses the
concept of maritime diplomacy, which has been largely neglected in
academic literature. The use of such diplomacy can be interesting
not just for the parochial effects of any activity, but because any
event can reflect changes in the international order, while acting
as an excellent gauge for the existence and severity of
international tension. Further, maritime diplomacy can act as a
valve through which any tension can be released without resort to
conflict. Written in an accessible but authoritative style, this
book describes the continued use of coercion outside of war by
navies, while also situating it more clearly within the various
roles and effects that maritime forces have in peacetime. This book
will be of much interest to students of seapower, naval history,
strategic studies, diplomacy and international relations.
