Reviews

'Rapid increases in the availability and power of connection technologies are changing the modes of international relations and the conditions for statecraft in the 21st century. This volume makes an important contribution to our understanding of how. This is a smart read for foreign policy practioners and those that study them.' -- Alec Ross, Senior Advisor for Innovation to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (2009-13) 'This unique collection of case studies on digital diplomacy dispenses with technological determinism and concentrates upon the management of change across the core practices of diplomacy. As such, it represents a timely and indispensable intervention in an emerging field of practice and scholarship.'-- James Pamment, University of Austin, Texas, USA 'The authors in this book, academics and practitioners, do not only have an interest in everything digital. Crucially, they successfully marry that knowledge to a solid understanding of 21st-century diplomatic practice. That is what makes this book special and so far indeed a unique contribution to the field.' -- Jan Melissen, Netherlands Institute of International Relations 'Clingendael', and University of Antwerp, Belgium
