This book is composed of interconnected essays which reflect on
challenging new issues related to diplomacy, communication, and
peace. This book begins by drawing out some of the challenges for
diplomacy that arise from modern theories of semantics and of
strategic communication, as well as those posed by the need for
secrecy, and by the activities of agents of influence. It then
proceeds to examine important issues in contemporary diplomacy,
including refugee diplomacy, humanitarian diplomacy, sovereignty,
norms, and consular activities. It concludes with an exploration of
dilemmas that confront attempts to promote peace through
multilateral means, such as the limitations of peacemaking
diplomacy, the difficulty of promoting democratic governance, and
the problems associated with dealing with morally repugnant actors.
The book is grounded in the conception of diplomacy as a social
practice with multiple players, and recognises that 'the state' has
many different elements, and that 'state actors' live in worlds
shaped not just by their relations with other states, but also by
their own complex domestic politics. This book will be of much
interest to students of diplomacy, foreign policy, and
International Relations.
