my understanding of diplomacy- ehtashamul haque

since we have started this module my understanding of diplomacy has changed a lot. diplomacys dynamics and branches has really made me realise how its playing a big role in shaping international affairs. the transformation of diplomacy to new structure and also the depth and area of diplomacy is now broader. diplomacy is a dicipline that allows states to negotiate and communicate with other states or non states entity to fullfill its objective. the difference between new and old diplomacy has showed the key changes that the diplomacy has embraced. the issues like security was the core focus of diplomacy before. but now diplomacy address major issues that globalisation has brought.e,g; trade, environment diplomacy. also the multilaterl diplomacy and the method of coducts are more clearer to me now. since the convention of vienna diplomacy has taken a new wait in world affirs. i have also learn about the phenomenon that new diplomacy has brought. the actors in diplomacy is now not only the states but also the NGOs, MNCs, even celebrities. I have also gained kowledge about the conference diplomacy which is a key element of new diplomacy. the idae of diplomacy is now in my mind is very clearer and broader and i think its depth is ever growing and interesting.
