Question: My Understanding of Diplomacy today. 29th April,2010.




Module: NEW DIPLOMACY.



The diplomacy is attached with management of relations between governments

and other actors, from a state position in relation to each other. Diplomacy is

concerned with discussion or advising, picturing and implementing foreign policy.

But there are many means by which governments through their formed and other

political actors. In addition to that, other actors, articulate, co-ordinate, and security

particular or public interests exchanging by correspondences, private talks, exchanges

of ideas, lobbying, tourists, threats and other related political activities diplomacy.


The World of Diplomacy or Public Diplomacy has changed.

In spite of, great differences between the hot and cold wars of the 20th century, the

underlying factors that developed the practice of public diplomacy were similar. States

dominated international relations. Non-state actors were few in number. “Good Ideas”

were secular struggles between regimes and democratic worldviews? Media and

communications systems used analog technologies. Hierarchies were the principal

organizing structure in society. The armies fought on battlefields with industrial age

weapons.


New diplomacy with new trends.

Since September 11th one has witness great adjustments and changes in international

relations in general and the relationships among powers in particular “September 11th

event” is a corner stone of post-cold war period and the one of new century as well.

It is the first time in history of international societies to admit so widely and seriously

the danger of terrorism without any large and serious campaign over this understanding.

In past years after the end of cold wars, for instance, there have been so many debates

and disputes on issue of what is the primary at the topic of national and international

securities that people including politicians and common mass feel confused often about

both domestically and internationally.


About New era and New diplomacy concerned each other. The integration may be fasted

and fastened though displaying various pictures at different areas with different

arrangement. Multi-level and multi-national regimes could be more available , U. N.and

its security council could play more role, various NGOs may get involved deeper,

decision-making by nation leaders on national stability may consult more with regional

and global partner at stance, just cite some of potentials.


Lastly, the diplomacy is now part of a global discussions, it has many different meanings

Or ideas and ‘no one size fits all’. The period of communication is going traction. Some

see it as more inclusive than new diplomacy and more descriptive of multi-stakeholder

environment. For most analytical and practical purposes, however, the two different

periods can be used analogously. For example, in 2007, Mr. G. Bush’s administration

used a US. National strategy for public diplomacy and strategic communication without

offering a distinction. My understanding of New Diplomacy today is to under-

stand the activities of the new policy. We know that relations between countries

have always been important and never more so when we need to work together

to tackle global economic problem, global terrorism, global warming and proverty

in development world.
