The way in which states are dealing with one another has changed more in the past decades than in the 350 years since the Peace of Westphalia. This accessible volume supplements the analyses of more familiar topics in the introductory literature on diplomacy. Experts from nine countries examine some of the ways in which diplomatic practice after 1945 has adapted to fundamental changes in international relations, or is still trying to come to terms with them. This book gives insights into a transforming diplomatic landscape and the changing forms and modalities of contemporary diplomacy.

This study of the GATT system in the 1960s uses declassified British and American government documents to identify the key role British diplomats played at the Kennedy Round. Through the close ties that characterize the Anglo-American relationship, the British influenced American policy and strategy in the negotiations. The evidence of this study challenges realist theories of middle-power influence in the international political economy by demonstrating the determining role of state level factors such as diplomatic skill and policy expertise.

This study provides an reassessment of the appeasement myths about Hitler by examining a central yet understudied figure. The British Ambassador of the period, Sir Nevile Henderson has been described as "our Nazi Ambassador in Berlin" by historians and popular memory alike. This reassessment draws upon primary documents to challenge orthodox interpretations. While Henderson's analysis of the Nazi regime was seriously flawed, the author argues that history has vastly overstated his influence.

How do governments that do not enjoy formal diplomatic relations use propaganda?

For such actors, propaganda can become diplomacy out of necessity. The Republic of China on Taiwan is such a government, and its predicament is the subject of this study. It discusses the relationship between diplomacy and propaganda, illustrated by a case study.
