"A comprehensive textbook addressing the development and issues of diplomacy, Global Diplomacy explores the theory and practice of diplomacy in the era of globalization and the networked world we live in today. In developing their argument that the existence of diplomacy is not dependent on the existence of modern states, Holmes and Rofe place diplomacy in the context of history and international relations theory, incorporate the voices of prominent scholars to explain the types of diplomacy--political, cultural, economic, and military--and discuss two current models of diplomacy, Transatlantic and European, as well as propose a third that accounts for the changing nature of the state and the growing power of other actors on the international stage. With its three-part framework and new institutional model, Global Diplomacy gives students of international relations more tools with which to address the global challenges we face today"-- Provided by publisher.
