Diplomacy
Diplomacy is the practice of conducting negotiations between representatives of states or groups, through the intercession of professional diplomats with regard to a full range of topical issues. Diplomacy entails influencing the decisions and conduct of foreign governments and officials through dialogue, negotiation, and other nonviolent means.
History[edit | edit source]
Diplomacy has been practiced since the formation of the first city-states. Originally it was practiced by the head of state, but in most countries, this function is now handled by a professional diplomatic corps.
Types of Diplomacy[edit | edit source]
There are several types of diplomacy, including:
- Track I diplomacy - This is official diplomatic action that is undertaken by individuals or groups representing a government or state.
- Track II diplomacy - This is diplomatic action that is undertaken by individuals or groups that are non-governmental.
- Public diplomacy - This is diplomatic action that is undertaken to influence public opinion or perception.
Diplomatic Immunity[edit | edit source]
Diplomatic immunity is a form of legal immunity and a policy held between governments, which ensures that diplomats are given safe passage and are considered not susceptible to lawsuit or prosecution under the host country's laws.
