Author:
If you want to better understand not only international but also social diplomacy, then this book is for you. If you are a practitioner in traditional diplomacy or a person who want to apply diplomatic ideas and methods in social life, you can find many useful insights in this original work. A scholar and experienced diplomat, the author argues that international and social diplomacy can learn from each other. He explores genuine diplomacy as a goodwill mission, constructive engagement, and dialogical interaction that can help states, non-state organizations, companies, groups, individuals, and their aggregations to create public goods and make positive social changes.
Professor Alisher Faizullaev, D.Sc., Ph.D., is a Professor Emeritus at the University of World Economy and Diplomacy, Tashkent, and former Ambassador of Uzbekistan to the United Kingdom, Benelux countries, the European Union, and NATO. His last book Symbolic Insult in Diplomacy: A Subtle Game of Diplomatic Slap was published by Brill in 2018.
