Studies in Diplomacy and Statecraft
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-22290-5 (ISBN)
The book offers insights into the rich tapestry of past and present international relations with differing emphases on political, military and cultural aspects. While some of the chapters explore the twentieth-century British foreign policy apparatus and the different networks of people at work within it, others examine the deeper intellectual and other currents that shaped trans-Atlantic ties in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Geopolitics – in a historiographical perspective and with a focus on Europe, the Eastern Mediterranean and East Asia – forms another important strand of this collection. All chapters explore periods of wider systemic change in international politics and thus offer reflections on the essential continuities and discontinuities in great power relations.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Diplomacy & Statecraft.
T.G. Otte is Professor of Diplomatic History at the University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK. Among his latest books is Statesman of Europe: A Life of Sir Edward Grey (2020).
