It provides a comprehensive foundation for understanding the theory, practice and utility of diplomacy showing how diplomatic techniques are used in different contexts and the various tools that are available to policy actors to provide a broad yet deep view of the subject area. Organised around a framework of eleven main chapters, the book embraces new ideas and fresh perspectives exploring individual methods such as reorientation, replacement institutions to combat decline or ineffectiveness of exiting arrangements, summit conferences, contrasting approaches to economic agreements, and use of secret diplomatic methods, among others. Furthermore, it develops new concepts such as logistics diplomacy, counter diplomacy, parallel diplomacy and the 'alternative architecture'. This textbook will be essential reading for all those interested in or studying in the fields of diplomacy, comparative foreign policy, foreign policy analysis and more broadly to international relations"--cProvided by publisher.  aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 0aDiplomacy. 7aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / Diplomacy2bisacsh 7aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Government / Comparative2bisacsh 7aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General2bisacsh403Taylor & Francisuhttps://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781003204039423OCLC metadata license agreementuhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf
