Reviews

'Pouliot's book is a welcome contribution to the international relations (IR) literature on the practice of diplomacy. Few works in the scholarly study of IR attempt to rigorously explain how multilateral diplomacy works and its larger effects. Pouliot's framework for understanding seeks to move beyond structural and agency approaches by integrating social theories to explain diplomacy and outcomes in world politics ... In essence, the book seeks to explain 'social theater' by looking closely at the practice of diplomacy ... Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.' J. Fields, Choice
