The 'old' diplomacy ,following the cold War period have been evolved ,alongside the contemporary world events ,and its nature as a consequence have been facing constant transformation.The International System is now characterized by new forms of conflict therefore in order for diplomactic outcomes to be,either relevant or efficient ,diplomacy in the International system is more often to take a multilateral form rather than the previous traditional bilateral shape,where various states tend to adopt the so-called "public diplomacy".
Some schoolars advocated that the old/traditional diplomacy in the constant transforming world politics is for the above reason ,not adequte anymore,in addressing the existent conflicts.
Following the same line of though, is Kessinger believe that the evolution of diplomacy ,such in theory as in pactice ,has been growing out of the impantience with the old /traditional bureaucratic forms of diplomacy.
Therefore this conclusions led me to share the believe as Sir Harold Nicholson that defined this new era of diplomacy,where the traditional one is no longer that relevant ,as "the management of the International Relations ,the method by which these relations are adjusted and managed by ambassadors and envoys...''also,he takes his point even further by emphasising the needs to change in approach in order to cope with the new development."
For this reason diplomacy has to accomodate to the comtemporary world conflicts and mainly be reivented ,so the old diplomacy feautures can still be relevant in the Globalized and increasingly modernized World but it isnt by all means that much relevant.
