A New Theory and Practice of Diplomacy by Jack Spence

Effective diplomacy remains fundamental to the conduct of international relations in the twenty-first century, as we seek to define and manage a challenging new world order peacefully. New Perspectives on Diplomacy examines the implications of the shifting international landscape upon how states interact with one another. Reflecting on the significant changes to the system of states over the past 50 years, including the end of the Cold War, the rise of transnational networks, challenges to borders, growth in national populism and the increasing difficulties presented to diplomats by radical transparency, the first volume presents the global context against which contemporary diplomacy is conducted.
[The book] forms an excellent first introduction into a wide range of diplomatic perspectives, specialisms and challenges––including COVID-19––that are deserving of further research* International Affairs *
