Foreign policy breakthroughs : cases in successful diplomacy / Robert Hutchings and Jeremi Suri. - 1 online resource : illustrations (black and white)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Diplomacy is essential to the conduct of foreign policy and international business in the twenty-first century. Yet, few international actors are trained to understand or practice effective diplomacy. Poor diplomacy has contributed to repeated setbacks for the United States and other major powers in the last decade. Drawing on deep historical research, this book aims to 'reinvent' diplomacy for our current era. The original and comparative research provides a foundation for thinking about what successful outreach, negotiation, and relationship building with foreign actors should look like.
