About this book

Indispensable for students of diplomacy and junior members of diplomatic services, this dictionary not only covers diplomacy's jargon but also includes entries on legal terms, political events, international organizations, e-Diplomacy, and major figures who have occupied the diplomatic scene or have written about it over the last half millennium.

Reviews

'...very useful, informative, and exceedingly well-written reference tool.' - Mark Y. Herring, American Reference Books Annual

'This dictionary will be of great benefit to all those who have to use or understand diplomatic terms - students and teachers of international relations, professional diplomats, and journalists.' - L. N Rangarajan, International Affairs

'This volume [ ] will demystify the language of diplomatic etiquette to students and casual readers alike.' - Malcolm Madden, Library, Royal Institute of International Affairs, UK

'The authors are to be commended in producing this dictionary. It will be extremely valuable to students, of course, but anyone interested in international relations will find it helpful in understanding the nature of modern diplomacy.' - Ian McGibbon, New Zealand International Review

'Most importantly...what remains unchanged is the value of this book as a reference source for anyone concerned with diplomacy...Libraries serving any of these clinet groups should obtain a copy.' - Tony Chalcraft, Reference Reviews
