"Essence of Diplomacy" explores the essential, timeless features of
diplomacy, drawing on the historical record of over three
millennia. In their effort at making international relations (IR)
theory relevant to diplomacy, and diplomacy relevant to IR theory,
the authors identify three essential dimensions of diplomacy:
communication, representation and the reproduction of international
society.
The nature of global governance is changing, as are the standards
by which we judge its legitimacy. We are witnessing a gradual and
partial shift from inter-state co-operation to more complex forms
of governance, involving participation by transnational actors,
such as NGOs, party associations, philanthropic foundations and
corporations.
The EU policy process is dependent on negotiations as a mode of
reaching agreements on, and implementing, common policies. The EU
negotiations differ from traditional international negotiations in
several respects and this book presents a detailed analysis of the
processes while examining their distinguishing features.
The authors explore the variety of negotiation processes, the
continuity and institutionalization of negotiation processes as
well as the involvement of a variety of actors besides governments,
often linked in informal networks. Going beyond the common
distinctions based on issue-areas or the EU as negotiation arena as
opposed to negotiating actor externally, the authors explore the
impact of different stages in the policy process and the nature of
the external negotiating partner.

Once the exclusive preserve of member states, international
organizations have become increasingly open in recent decades. Now
virtually all international organizations at some level involve
NGOs, business actors and scientific experts in policy-making. This
book offers the first systematic and comprehensive analysis of this
development. Combining statistical analysis and in-depth case
studies, it maps and explains the openness of international
organizations across issue areas, policy functions and world
regions from 1950 to 2010. Addressing the question of where, how
and why international organizations offer transnational actors
access to global policy-making, this book has implications for
critical issues in world politics. When do states share authority
with private actors? What drives the design of international
organizations? How do activists and businesses influence global
politics? Is civil society involvement a solution to democratic
deficits in global governance?
