This book provides a genealogy of the concept of 'protocol' in
government. It examines the functions that different protocols play
in the contemporary world, and how they act as devices which
regulate delicate and strategic fields of politics and society. The
book opens by assessing the historical origins of the word
'protocol', proposes a typology of protocols, and highlights the
three main actions of these devices: formalising, standardising,
and certifying. It then stresses the ways in which protocols are
employed as governing devices, their use as policy instruments, and
their role within capitalism. The book concludes by analysing
protocol as a method for managing various aspects of social life.
The politics of protocols and the dilemmas they present, especially
within crisis and emergency scenarios, are also discussed. The book
will appeal to scholars and students of public policy, sociology,
political philosophy and the theory of law.
