Full textAbstract:
Traditional studies in the field of diplomacy have long been based on realistic and neorealistic approaches to international relations, which gave rise to a state-centric analysis of mainly political programs, giving way to economic issues. However, recently scientists have begun to pay attention to international relations that go beyond security. Thus, there has been a significant change in the study of diplomacy, with an emphasis on a better understanding of the processes and practices underlying economic diplomacy. New concepts of diplomacy have emerged, such as catalytic diplomacy, network diplomacy and multi-stakeholder diplomacy, which offer new tools for recognizing the wide variety of State and non-State actors in diplomatic practice, as well as for exploring the diverse and changing characteristics of diplomatic processes. In this context, two main topics in the study of diplomacy can be distinguished: The first is the role of a diplomat as an agent in international political economy, the second is how to fit into a diplomatic department for officials who do not belong to the state or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the changing environment caused by globalization, economic diplomacy stimulates the development of various diplomatic methods and practices in new and existing economic forums. Four key ways of economic diplomacy have a significant impact on the management of modern globalization: commercial diplomacy, trade diplomacy, financial diplomacy and the provision of consular and visa services in connection with increasing immigration flows. The development of these methods of economic diplomacy has shaped our understanding of diplomats, their role and ways of its implementation.

Dalam kurun waktu 15-20 tahun terakhir, diplomasi ekonomi menjadi salah satu topik riset yang cukup diminati, seiring dengan semakin aktifnya negara-negara di dunia melakukan aktivitas ini. Australia, Jepang, Cina dan Indonesia merupakan contoh negara-negara yang telah melakukan restrukturisasi terhadap instrumen dan arah politik luar negeri untuk mengakomodasi masuknya diplomasi ekonomi sebagai salah satu agenda utama politik luar negerinya. Sayangnya, sebagai suatu kajian baru, diplomasi ekonomi masih mengalami beberapa tantangan utama, khususnya dalam proses pembentukan pengetahuan (knowledge-building process), yang ditandai dengan permasalahan pada tiga aspek utama yakni isu konseptual, metodologis dan alat analisis. Berdasarkan penelusuran terhadap referensi-referensi utamanya, tulisan ini menemukan bahwa diplomasi ekonomi masih membutuhkan konsolidasi di berbagai aspek termasuk definisi, varian/aliran, metode penelitian dan kerangka teori. Lebih lanjut, dikotomi antara studi diplomasi dan ilmu ekonomi – sebagai ilmu induk diplomasi ekonomi – juga menyebabkan polarisasi yang cukup signifikan dan berpengaruh pada perkembangannya sebagai bidang kajian. Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengusulkan upaya-upaya untuk mengatasi permasalahan-permasalahan ini dan membentuk diplomasi ekonomi sebagai suatu kajian dan agenda riset yang lebih tertata, sistematis, dan komprehensif.Kata-kata kunci: diplomasi ekonomi, diplomasi, diplomasi dagang, diplomasi komersialWithin the last 15-20 years, economic diplomacy has emerged to become an intriguing research topic, in line with states’ growing practice in this activity. Australia, Japan, China, and Indonesia are amongst the states who had restructured their instruments and foreign policy directions to incorporate economic diplomacy as an integral part of it. However, as a new research area, economic diplomacy faces several challenges in its knowledge-building process, most notably in formulating the conceptual, methodological, and analytical basis of the study. By tracing the core references of economic diplomacy, this paper finds that, as a research agenda, economic diplomacy lacks consolidation regarding its definition, variants/strands, research methods dan theoretical models. Moreover, the rigid dichotomy between diplomacy and economy – as the knowledge base of economic diplomacy – creates a significant polarisation, affecting economic diplomacy’s development as a new research field. Therefore, this paper seeks to introduce ways to overcome these problems and develop economic diplomacy as a more systematic and comprehensive research agenda.Keywords: economic diplomacy, diplomacy, trade diplomacy, commercial diplomacy

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThis article introduces both a conceptual and an analytical framework of economic diplomacy so as to contribute to sounder understanding of economic diplomacy’s activities, tools and goals. While the state is not regarded as the only player, or as a coherent entity, it is assumed that the state is the primary actor in economic diplomacy. The conceptual framework discerns five strands of economic diplomacy, which involve tools and purposes that are relatively more commercial/economic or political in character and are thereby closer to the ‘business end’ or ‘power-play end’ of economic diplomacy. The analytical framework identifies four essential dimensions of economic diplomacy within which historically contingent change may occur: the context; tools; theatres; and processes. Interaction between these dimensions takes place in multiple ways. Building on the insights provided by these frameworks, the article analyses the foci, assumptions and methodologies of the research fields that are concerned with economic diplomacy, and discusses the strategic and ideological considerations that underpin it.

Artikel ini menjelaskan tentang diplomasi ekonomi dalam politik luar negeri Republik Indonesia di bawah Presiden Joko Widodo pada tahun 2015-2018 sebagai sebuah konsep dan kebijakan. Diplomasi ekonomi bukan sekadar satu dari arah kebijakan luar negeri tetapi lebih daripada itu diplomasi ekonomi telah menjadi corak dan gaya diplomasi Indonesia pada periode yang sama. Dari analisis kualitatif berbasis data-data sekuder berupa dokumen kebijakan, laporan resmi pemerintah dan pemberitaan media massa, studi ini mendapati bahwa politik luar negeri Indonesia di bawah Presiden Joko Widodo dilaksanakan untuk mendukung program pembangunan nasional. Dengn kata lain, politik luar negeri Presiden Joko Widodo adalah politik luar negeri untuk mengejar keperluan-keperluan dalam negeri. Oleh karenanya, corak diplomasi yang diterapkan adalah diplomasi ekonomi yang memang dibutuhkan untuk mendukung agenda pembangunan nasional, terutama penyelesaian program infrastruktur dan lainnya. Diplomasi ekonomi baru dalam terminologi tetapi sesungguhnya adalah revitalisasi diplomasi non-politik yang pernah dilaksanakan oleh Indonesia sebelumnya.Kata-kata kunci: politik luar negeri, diplomasi ekonomi, Indonesia, kemitraan ekonomi. This article explains the concept of economic diplomacy of Indonesian foreign policy under President Joko Widodo in 2015-2018. Economic Diplomacy is not only one of the Indonesian foreign policy directions under Joko Widodo but it was more as the most important characteristic and reference of Indonesian diplomacy of the period. Using a qualitative study that rellied upon the secondary data of policy documents, government reports, and media reporting from Kompas daily newspaper, this study concluded that the Indonesian foreign policy under President Joko Widodo was conducted to support the national development program, or foreign policy for domestic needs. Economic diplomacy was needed to support this national agenda of mega projects infrastructure and other development programs. This economic diplomacy was new in terminology but it was only a variant of non-political diplomacy which had been done by the ministry for foreign affairs of Indonesia in the previous administrations. Keywords: foreign policy, economic diplomacy, Indonesia, economic partnership.

The article analyzes the impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic crisis on the foreign policy and diplomacy of states, including economic diplomacy. ED is interpreted as a multi-sided multi-faceted activity, an integral part of foreign policy aimed at protecting the national interests and economic security of the country. Given the interdepartmental nature of the ED, the presence of numerous actors and agents, not only state, but also public and business structures, political and foreign economic coordination on the part of the Foreign Ministries is of great importance, and this role of foreign policy departments is increasing during the pandemic crisis. The activity of the ED of Russia in 2020 was generally successful, among the main results: active participation of diplomats in the anti-epidemic work of the Government of the Russian Federation, including export flights, provision of emergency assistance by compatriots abroad, assistance to foreign countries; measures to promote the Russian vaccine in the world, establish its production abroad, and thus win new world markets for medicines; settlement of the pricing crisis on the world oil market with the leading role of Russia and Saudi Arabia; adjustment of double taxation agreements with a number of foreign countries, taking into account the domestic economic needs of the country; the growing experience of BRICS, this interstate association, which did not know the crisis, including its fight against epidemiological diseases, during the period of Russia’s presidency in the BRICS; further steps to deepen integration within the EAEU; Russia’s success in the eastern direction of foreign policy, in the development of trade exchanges and epidemiological cooperation with the ASEAN and APEC states. The new world crisis has become a catalyst for the convergence of ED methods with scientific and public diplomacy, with other diplomatic cultures that can be combined under the general name of civil diplomacy. Such a separation is required to protect the legacy of professional diplomacy, the popularity and use of which methods is growing significantly. ED, as an integral part of official diplomacy, is presented as a mediator between classical and civil diplomacy. It provides civil society with an example of the more rigorous, pragmatic, resultsoriented work that the current pandemic crisis requires.

Full textAbstract:
The development of international politics due to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has caused international political instability and pressure on agricultural products and the energy sector in the world. Indonesia’s leading export commodity, under discriminatory pressure from the European Union, also has economic implications due to the Russian-Ukrainian war. Disruption to the world’s vegetable oil supply chains, the urgent need for food security, and the impact on achieving the goals of sustainable development that have been agreed upon so far make Indonesia seek to use the existing narrative through economic diplomacy. This condition is also related to Indonesia’s vegetable oil diplomacy as one of the foreign policy instruments. Therefore, economic diplomacy regarding Indonesian vegetable oils is also part of Indonesia’s national interest. This article uses qualitative methods with a descriptive-analytical type on how Indonesia uses the narrative of sustainable development issues in the context of Indonesian vegetable oils to achieve Sustainable Development Goals 2030, including instruments of economic diplomacy in realizing Indonesia’s national interest in Indonesia’s vegetable oil diplomacy. Keywords: economic diplomacy, Indonesia, foreign policy, vegetable oil, SDGs 2030 Perkembangan politik internasional akibat konflik Rusia-Ukraina telah menimbulkan dampak tidak hanya instabilitas politik internasional, namun juga tekanan terhadap komoditas produk pertanian maupun sektor energi di dunia.

Gangguan terhadap rantai pasok minyak nabati dunia dan sangat diperlukan tersedianya ketahanan pangan serta dampak terhadap pencapaian tujuan dari pembangunan berkelanjutan yang telah disepakati selama ini, menjadikan Indonesia berupaya menggunakan narasi yang ada melalui diplomasi ekonomi. Hal ini juga terkait dengan diplomasi minyak nabati Indonesia sebagai salah satu instrumen kebijakan luar negeri. Diplomasi ekonomi berkenaan dengan minyak nabati Indonesia juga merupakan bagian dari kepentingan nasional Indonesia. Artikel ini akan menjelaskan dengan metode kualitatif dengan jenis deskriptif analitis bagaimana Indonesia menggunakan narasi pembangunan berkelanjutan dalam konteks minyak nabati Indonesia guna mencapai Sustainable Development Goals 2030, termasuk instrumen diplomasi ekonomi dalam mewujudkan kepentingan nasional Indonesia dalam diplomasi minyak nabati Indonesia.

Full textAbstract:
The present foreign policies of Nepal are based on the Charter of the United Nations, non-alignment, principles of Panchasheel (peaceful co-existence, mutual respect for territorial integrity, sovereignty, and independence; non–aggression; non–interference in each other’s internal affairs and Equality and mutual benefit), international law and the norms of world peace, taking into consideration of the overall interest of the nation while remaining active in safeguarding the sovereignty, territorial integrity, independence, and national interest. The foreign policy of Nepal has been changing over the years. After unofficial blockade of immediate neighbor India, the challenges and opportunities are seen in the sky of Nepalese foreign policy. The major emerging challenges of Nepalese foreign policy are to balance the foreign policy with India and China continuation of independent foreign policy, recognize and prioritize the national interest, modernization of foreign policy, political consensus, national unity, political consensus, and good leadership, successful conduction of economic diplomacy, etc. Diplomacy is one of the powerful means or instruments of achieving the goals of foreign policy. The goals of foreign policy are guided by the national interests of concerned states. Diplomats are the actors who plays role according to the foreign policy of the concern state. Diplomats have to perform different functions and discharge different duties with their different roles and capacities. In other words, it is the task for the diplomat to act in different capacities and to play different a role because diplomacy itself is a serious business which requires different capacities and role by the diplomats. The major responsibility of diplomat is the promotion and protection of the national interests of Nepal. Therefore, the proficient diplomat should require making diplomacy effective.

Tendo em conta a globalização da sociedade e as transformações a que estão sujeitas todas as instituições, importa saber se a diplomacia portuguesa terá enfrentado muitas mudanças. A era da aldeia global de McLuhan em constante aceleração por via das novas tecnologias e das facilidades de comunicação alteraram, não o objetivo, mas a forma de exercer a diplomacia. As principais funções diplomáticas mantêm-se mas com alterações, umas mais do que outras, tentando acompanhar a evolução da sociedade. O acesso à própria carreira diplomática também sofreu algumas alterações como resposta a uma necessidade premente de profissionais no corpo diplomático. Novos atores surgiram e novas diplomacias também. Falamos de diplomacia pública mas também da diplomacia económica. Especial destaque para esta última que, no que a Portugal diz respeito, constituiu, nos últimos tempos, uma das mais importantes áreas para o país. É hoje fundamental na nova agenda económica do país e assume um papel preponderante na nova dimensão da competitividade em Portugal. As empresas, os empresários e as associações empresariais podem, portanto, ser vistas, elas próprias como atores de diplomacia porquanto, não raras vezes, geram valor ao país, através da imagem e do seu trabalho no, ou com o exterior. A instalação crescente de agências da AICEP nas embaixadas são o resultado de um esforço comum com o objetivo claro de reforçar ações de diplomacia económica. Tanto os diplomatas de topo como os de início de carreira concordam que houve alterações às quais a diplomacia portuguesa se teve de adaptar não obstante o facto de, na sua essência e propósito, se manterem os principais pilares diplomáticos. Por este motivo e pese embora, muitos outros atores venham a surgir de futuro e ao ritmo da globalização, a sua função (diplomatas) nunca deixará de fazer sentido. Pode-se ter acesso a mais informação, mas muita dela necessita de ser filtrada, pode-se encontrar novos meios e novos profissionais para negociações, mas muitas vezes, necessitar-se-á de um intermediário ao nível diplomático para que essas negociações não caiam por terra. A diplomacia tem assim o seu “lugar” assegurado ainda que divida a atenção, quer com o poder político quer com os novos atores; Abstract:
Bearing in mind the globalization of society and the transformations in all institutions, it is important to know whether Portuguese Diplomacy has faced many changes. The era of McLuhan's global village, which is constantly accelerating due to new technologies and communication facilities, has changed, not the purpose, but the way of exercising diplomacy. The main diplomatic functions are preserved but with changes, some more than others, trying to follow the evolution of society itself. Access to the diplomatic career itself has also undergone some changes in response to a pressing need for professionals in the diplomatic corps. New actors have emerged and new diplomacy as well. We speak of public diplomacy but also of economic diplomacy. Special emphasis is placed on the latter, which, as far as Portugal is concerned, has recently been one of the most important áreas. It is now crucial in the country's new economic agenda and assumes a leading role in the new dimension of competitiveness in Portugal. Companies, entrepreneurs and business associations can, therefore, be seen, themselves as actors of diplomacy because, often, they generate value to the country, through the image and their work in, or with the outside. The increasing installation of AICEP agencies at embassies is the result of a joint effort with the clear objective of reinforcing economic diplomacy actions. Both top and new diplomats agree that there have been changes to which Portuguese diplomacy had to adapt despite the fact that, in essence and purpose, the main diplomatic pillars remain. For this reason and despite the fact that many other actors will emerge in the future and at the pace of globalization, diplomat’s role will never fail to make sense. They can have access to more information, but a lot of it needs to be filtered, they can find new ways and new professionals for negotiations, but often, they will need an intermediary at the diplomatic level so that these negotiations do not fall overland. Thus, diplomacy has its “place” ensured even if it divides attention, either with political power or with new actors.

South Africa has become a significant role player in the international relations since being readmitted into the world community after the first democratic election in 1994. The primary focus of country’s international relations is the African continent. South Africa has played a pivotal role in bringing peace across the continent. There has also been an increase in South Africa’s engagement with the continent on economic and trade issues. South Africa’s economic diplomacy has been scrutinized from different angles. There has been perceptions of a South Africa with imperialists or hegemonic tendencies resembling those of the West. There are also those who view South Africa’s economic role in the continent in the positive light as a contributor to economic growth and development. The South African governments have always preached the notion of the “African agenda” and the interest in fair trade and engagement with the continent. This study assesses different debates regarding South Africa’s economic diplomacy in Africa and explores if this is benefiting the continent’s development. The study also considers if such economic diplomacy has positive spin off for the South African economy. Since economic diplomacy is operated at government level the study also considers how economic diplomacy is coordinated in South Africa. There are a number of recommendations presented for the improvement of economic diplomacy in South Africa.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Relações InternacionaisO objetivo da dissertação é compreender como a diplomacia portuguesa foi, no contexto europeu de 2008 a 2015, e continua a ser, um instrumento de renovação da credibilidade e prestígio de Portugal no estrangeiro. Durante o período em estudo, Portugal atravessou uma crise económico-financeira que, apesar de não se ter refletido numa perda da boa imagem do país, condicionou a sua ação externa, tornando imperativa a criação de novas estratégias de renovação da sua credibilidade e prestígio externos. A dissertação analisa a atuação da diplomacia portuguesa no período em questão, designadamente o trabalho executado pelos principais atores da Política Externa portuguesa (MNE, Diplomatas, Embaixadas e Consulados, AICEP, Instituto Camões). O argumento subjacente é o de que a diplomacia cumpriu a sua principal função de implementação dos objetivos da Política Externa portuguesa, principalmente o da renovação da credibilidade e prestígio externos, demonstrando que existiu uma priorização dos assuntos europeus no período em estudo. A dissertação argumenta ainda que no período pós-2015 a especialização diplomática em áreas onde Portugal tem já um passado (como China e Cabo Verde) continua a contribuir para os mesmos objetivos da renovação da credibilidade e prestígio externos
The aim of this dissertation is to understand how Portuguese diplomacy was, in the European context of 2008 to 2015, and continues to be an instrument to renew Portugal’s external credibility and prestige. During this period, Portugal went through an economic-financial crisis, which, although it hasn't had a negative effect on the country’s external image, has conditioned its external action and made it imperative to create new strategies to renew the country’s external prestige and credibility. This dissertation analyzes the Portuguese diplomacy action in the period in question through the work executed by Portuguese foreign policy actors (MNE, Diplomatas, Embaixadas e Consulados, AICEP e Instituto Camões). The major goal of this study is to argue that diplomacy fulfilled its main function of implementation foreign policy goals, mainly, the renewal of the country’s external prestige and credibility, demonstrating that there was a prioritization of European Affairs in the period of 2008 to 2015. This dissertation also argues that in post-2015 the specialization of diplomacy on areas where Portugal already has a past (as China and Cape Verde) continues to contribute to the same goals of the renewal of the country’s external prestige and credibility.

Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2013. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/747/.
Full textAbstract:
Since the reformation of the Chinese economy, two notable trends have developed. First, the growing prominence of multilateral economic regimes (MERs) on the political agenda of Beijing has propelled deepened engagements between Chinese policy actors and institutions, and the agencies of MERs. This development is accompanied by a second trend, which is a growing dynamism in China’s economic diplomacy within the multilateral arenas. This dynamism is reflected in the evolving national preferences and approaches for multilateral economic negotiations, from outright resistance to gradual flexibility, and in some cases, acceptance. The simultaneous and parallel developments of these two trends stem a curiosity on whether a causal relationship exist between the deepened China-MER engagements and the dynamism of China’s economic diplomacy. Has Beijing’s open-door policy to global economic integration opened new windows of opportunity for the MER agencies to influence China’s economic diplomacy and its preference formation? In what way(s) and/or in which capacities can the agencies of MERs assert influence on China’s economic diplomacy preference formation? Under what conditions is this form of external influence successful? What are the long-run implications of the deepened China-MER engagements on Beijing’s economic diplomacy preference formation structure? What does the China-MER relationship tell us about China’s economic diplomacy preference formation in the 21st century? Although China’s partake in the international political economy has received much scholarly attention, few studies have attempted to decode China’s economic diplomacy preference formation, and even fewer have investigated the important nexus between the China-MER relationship and the behaviours of Chinese economic diplomacy. This thesis is a response to the knowledge deficit in these regards. By examining China’s participation in the multilateral climate change, and trade 4 negotiations, the thesis addresses the primary research question, how do multilateral economic regimes and their agencies influence China’s economic diplomacy preference formation? The study finds that the MER agencies do affect Chinese economic diplomacy preference formation. However, their influence peaks at an absorption level whereby Chinese preferences adapt to external preferences but not to the extent of reforming traditional principles and beliefs. The comparatively more effective ways of asserting influence for the MER agencies is through a costs-and-benefits calculus, information dissemination, shuttle diplomacy proximity talks, and informal negotiation practices. In general, Chinese policy actors do not refute the influence of the MER agencies; rather they absorb and adapt to it. In addition, the MER agencies assert influence at different stages of the preference formation, and over time, implicitly establish themselves as integrated policy actors in Beijing. On the whole, this thesis contributes to a deeper understanding about how, why, and when international linkages matter in China’s economic diplomacy, and to the extent of driving preference transformation. The study provides useful analytic lenses that flesh out the variety of functions the MER agencies have in shaping and informing China’s national preferences and negotiation approaches. At the same time, it offers a fuller description of how the Chinese policy actors and institutions respond to (implicit) external interventions in its policy processes. Consequently, this thesis is a significant contribution that adds value to the scholarly debates and knowledge-building about one of the most important political and economic phenomenon of our time.

Mestrado em Ciências EconómicasO conteúdo económico da diplomacia tem vindo a ser ampliado por força do movimento da globalização e pela integração da vertente económica em todos os sectores da sociedade. Esta vertente da diplomacia tem vindo a tornar-se cada vez mais num instrumento fundamental da actividade externa dos Estados e dos interesses de um país. Deste modo, aquela procura adaptar-se às circunstâncias actuais da economia portuguesa, o que obriga ao alargamento de funções e objectivos diplomáticos. Num contexto de mudança e de crescimento económico a internacionalização tornou-se num imperativo estratégico para qualquer banco. Os bancos portugueses procuram internacionalizar-se para mercados que apresentem vantagens competitivas globais ou específicas, ao mesmo tempo que têm vindo a desempenhar um papel primordial no apoio à internacionalização das empresas nacionais. Neste sentido, o presente trabalho procura analisar a evolução do modelo de diplomacia económica definido pelos diferentes governos e a internacionalização da banca portuguesa, que tem tido um papel muito relevante para o desenvolvimento económico do país, com a finalidade de constatar se existe relação entre estas duas temáticas.
The economic contents of diplomacy have been expanding as a result of the strength in the globalization movement and the integration of economic aspects in all the sectors of society. This particular type of diplomacy has become increasingly a fundamental tool of the external activity of the states and of the interests of a country. Thus, it seeks to adapt to the present situation of the Portuguese economy, forcing a widening of diplomatic roles and objectives. In a context of changing and economic growth, the internationalization has become a strategic imperative for any bank. The Portuguese banks seek to internationalize in global financial markets that show global or specific competitive advantages, and at the same time a primordial role in supporting the internationalization of national companies. With this purpose, the present essay hopes to analyze the evolution of the economic diplomacy model defined by the different governments and the internationalization of Portuguese banking, which has played a major role on the economic development of the country, in order to find if exists a connection between this two topics.

Alves, Ana Cristina. "China’s oil diplomacy : comparing Chinese economic statecraft in Angola and Brazil." Thesis, London School of Economics and Political Science (University of London), 2011. http://etheses.lse.ac.uk/206/.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis aims to investigate the reasons for the variation in China’s oil diplomacy performance in Africa and South America in the period 2000-2010. Lacking sound experience in pursuing oil security overseas and enjoying strong financial muscle, China’s oil diplomacy is largely rooted in the extension of soft loans for infrastructure to oil-rich countries in exchange for steady oil supply and favoured access to oil acreage. Taking Angola and Brazil as case studies this thesis argues that differences in the institutional structure of the oil industry in each country, determined different outcomes regarding Beijing’s oil security goals. This thesis has found that although this template fitted well with the more centralised institutional environment in Angola, it was highly unsuitable for the more liberal and regulated Brazil setting. Furthermore, the advent of the recent global economic crisis (2008-2009) caused China to adjust its approach to the institutional particulars of Brazil becoming more efficient in that country regarding its oil security goals. Building on foreign policy analysis tools and concepts, an empirical analysis of the interplay between Chinese infrastructure-for-oil loans (hereby regarded as positive economic statecraft) and the institutional structure it met in each country, is presented. Through the case studies, this thesis aims to uncover to what extent the institutional context constrained Chinese oil diplomacy efficiency in Brazil for most of the past decade, and how innovation has surfaced in the context of the global financial crisis. This analysis thus gives interesting insights not only into the dynamics of China’s oil diplomacy in Africa and South America, but also into Chinese economic statecraft in general and how constraints that surface at the implementation level feedback into foreign policy formulation.

This paper will discuss the basic theoretical assumptions of economic diplomacy, as the specific segment of contemporary diplomacy. The author will identify the basic content attributed to this activity by contemporary globalized economic relations, making it almost an indispensable item of national efforts to increase the competitiveness of domestic economies. Specific analysis will be given to factors that, at both the general and specific levels, provide greater chances of achieving the goals of the economic diplomats missions.

Full textAbstract:
When considering the (sub)region of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and its position in the global economy in relative terms represented by trade openness, the European Union (EU) members from the CEE (sub)region tend to match or even exceed the EU average and EU membership underlines their potential. Recently, environmental concerns have become prominent in international trade and in the framework of its external relations the EU seeks to boost its ambition of a global player. Our paper is oriented on the economic diplomacy and environmental diplomacy theme � in terms of EU competences represented by �commercial diplomacy�, �trade diplomacy� and the �Green Deal diplomacy�. To promote more sustainable developments, the EU�s European Green Deal (2019) emphasises the Comprehensive Strategy of the EU with Africa and this is why the aim of our paper was to assess the EU�s interests in transregional sense by applying the Pareto-optimal scenario/the Nash equilibrium to the qualitative hypothesis formulated: �Geostrategic interests of China and of the postBrexit EU in the process of shaping a new EU strategy towards Africa are partly of a rival and partly of a complementary nature�. When documenting quantitative & qualitative sustainable development trends in the context of international spillovers and relevance of both transregional complementarity & rivalry between the EU and PRC/China, our paper addressed the United Nations 2030 Agenda as well as the African Union Agenda 2063.

Full textAbstract:
This article aims to highlight that the war in Ukraine, which came after the COVID-19 crisis of 2020- 2021, and after the already existing global economic crisis, added new problems and amplified the effects of the already existing ones. Today, only the innovation management could offer a set of tools that would allow leaders of all states to closely cooperate in order to understand the common processes and objectives, to encourage new projects even of small entrepreneurs of the developing countries by supporting them, a process which, if well managed, can lead to a significant economic growth and help them to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. Nowadays, innovative management and eco-diplomacy play a decisive role in overcoming the crisis moments in Romania, European Union and in the world and this can be achieved also by increasing the capacity and participation of the younger generation of diplomats and professionals in promoting peace and ecological diversity. The aim of this paper is to answer to the question: Where do we stand today with regard to the innovation management in the field of natural resources as natural gas and which is the role of eco-diplomacy today. The research is based on official reports on gas and energy production and consumption in Romania and other countries.

Full textAbstract:
The diaspora is increasingly seen as a potential resource for development and the ways in which the diaspora is involved in the development of the country of origin are becoming more diverse. Review of scientific literature shows that there has been little research on the perspective of highly skilled diaspora professionals on cooperation benefits for their homelands, as well as diaspora engagement for home country development and for diaspora diplomacy are rarely linked. The article draws attention to the perspective of highly qualified Latvian diaspora professionals on cooperation with Latvia and the benefits to the country from such cooperation, linking cooperation for diaspora diplomacy and for development. The article will also examine whether the benefits of cooperation identified in other studies (mainly from the state viewpoint) coincide with the vision of diaspora professionals on such benefits. The data used in the analysis is derived from the study “The involvement of Latvian professionals in diaspora diplomacy and the potential of network diplomacy” and further analysis is possible thanks to the State research programme “New solutions to study demographic and migration processes for the development of Latvian society”. The main results illustrate the framework for cooperation between diaspora professionals and the public administration in Latvia, the most significant benefits of diaspora diplomacy and the benefits from diaspora engagement for development (the transfer of social capital, as well as the transfer of experience, knowledge, ideas and practices to the public administration and other sectors). The data reveals high readiness of highly skilled Latvian diaspora professionals to cooperate, and diverse benefits of cooperation for national development and international visibility of Latvia.

Kelly, Luke. Characteristics of Global Health Diplomacy. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), June 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2021.09.
Full textAbstract:
This rapid review focuses on Global Health Diplomacy and defines it as a method of interaction between the different stakeholders of the public health sector in a bid to promote representation, cooperation, promotion of the right to health and improvement of health systems for vulnerable populations on a global scale. It is the link between health and international relations. GHD has various actors including states, intergovernmental organizations, private companies, public-private partnerships and non-governmental organizations. Foreign policies can be integrated into national health in various ways i.e., designing institutions to govern practices regarding health diplomacy (i.e., health and foreign affairs ministries), creating and promoting norms and ideas that support foreign policy integration and promoting policies that deal with specific issues affecting the different actors in the GHD arena to encourage states to integrate them into their national health strategies. GHD is classified into core diplomacy – where there are bilateral and multilateral negotiations which may lead to binding agreements, multistakeholder diplomacy – where there are multilateral and bilateral negotiations which do not lead to binding agreements and informal diplomacy – which are interactions between other actors in the public health sector i.e., NGOs and Intergovernmental Organizations. The US National Security Strategy of 2010 highlighted the matters to be considered while drafting a health strategy as: the prevalence of the disease, the potential of the state to treat the disease and the value of affected areas. The UK Government Strategy found the drivers of health strategies to be self-interest (protecting security and economic interests of the state), enhancing the UK’s reputation, and focusing on global health to help others. The report views health diplomacy as a field which requires expertise from different disciplines, especially in the field of foreign policy and public health. The lack of diplomatic expertise and health expertise have been cited as barriers to integrating health into foreign policies. States and other actors should collaborate to promote the right to health globally.

Full textAbstract:
This report critically examines the nature of the distinction between traditional inter-state diplomacy and sustainable development diplomacy. It then sets out the institutional changes which are necessary for the achievement of sustainable development diplomacy. Multi-stakeholder partnerships have been identified as a key means of implementation for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Given the increasing centrality of the United States (US)–China relationship in global development cooperation, understanding the modalities of their engagement may provide useful insights into how partnerships may be cultivated and deepened to realise the SDGs. The Covid-19 pandemic and climate change have demonstrated the interconnection of the world, as well as the interconnection of challenges of the world. Sustainable development diplomacy is needed now more than ever to prioritise development strategies of different states and work on common shared challenges. Sustainable development diplomacy can only work when different actors recognise the value of the common goals and are willing to make an effort to accomplish them. Global sustainable development diplomacy requires a stronger policy agenda and greater cohesion. This report explores the idea of sustainable development diplomacy and, through two sectoral case studies, explores the nature, function, and rationale for interactive engagement. The form and structure of multi-actor relationships are a response to complex, trans-border political, social, economic, and environmental challenges which require a more nuanced and varied management approach than narrowly defined state-led development. However, the power dynamics, the modalities, and experiences of engagement that underpin these dynamic relationships, remain understudied, especially with regard to their impact on sustainable development.

How to build a convergence within the diversity of integrationist experiences? How can global efforts converge with regional and national realities through a glocal (global + local) governance that supports a productive integration and generates sustainable jobs? In this context of new challenges, Latin America must face the transformation of the Chinese economic model. After years of keeping prices of raw materials high, an exponential growth and an active investment policy in the region, Chinese economy grows at a slower rate, shows greater financial volatility, and shifts the focus from production to consumption. How will this metamorphosis impact on Latin-American development? What are the ways to overcome the stage of mere exchange of commodities for industrial products? How to move forward to a technology transfer that fosters innovation and facilitates export diversification? World-class authors, diplomats, negotiators, academics and private sector representatives analyze here the outlook of the linkage with the Asian giant. From an interdisciplinary approach, the Institute for the Integration of Latin America and the Caribbean (INTAL), a unit of the Department of Integration and Trade of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), makes through this volume a contribution to building a regional agenda to jointly address the questions of the current scenario.

For nearly 100 years, American leadership, regardless of political affiliation, has recognized the vital importance of people-to-people international exchange programs in bolstering our nation’s economy, strengthening our national security, and improving America’s status in the world. In today’s interconnected world, where global challenges require global cooperation on solutions, the United States should not retreat from international engagement, but should rather double our efforts to build positive and mutually supportive connections with our neighbors. America must embrace its role in leading international peace and prosperity by facilitating meaningful, safe, educational exchange in all directions – helping more Americans learn firsthand about other people and cultures and helping more foreign students come to America to experience for themselves the principles upon which our country was built - liberty, democracy, capitalism, and basic human freedom. America can and should leverage international education, exchange and public diplomacy programs to plant seeds of peace, regain the world’s trust, and return to our previous role as a respected leader in global affairs. Leading the effort to bring the world together helps America, Americans, and our vital allies.

This working paper examines the puzzle of the gaps between the images that the EU projects, voluntarily and involuntarily, and the perceptions of the EU in Latin America. After reviewing some of the debates related to the role of perceptions in public policy and EU Public Diplomacy (EUPD), the paper analyzes some critical developments in global perceptions of the EU based on the study Update of the 2015 Analysis of the Perception of the EU and EU Policies Abroad (2021 Update Study), which assessed the attitudes of the EU in 13 countries. The third section examines some studies on the attitudes of the EU in Latin America, including some contributions from Latinobarometer. The fourth section offers comparative cases of EU perception in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia based on the findings of the 2021 Update Study. The analysis of each country relies on the interpretation of surveys with some references to the press analysis and interview methods provided in the 2021 Update Study. Each case discusses specific trends in the following areas: visibility, primary descriptors, global economics, and international leadership. Also, it identifies some patterns in perceptions of the EU in social development, climate change, research/technology, development assistance, culture, the case of the critical juncture in the survey (pandemic), and the EU as a normative setter. The final section offers some general trends in the perceptions of the EU in Latin America.

Full textAbstract:
As part of the overall focus on the democratic backsliding in Hungary since Viktor Orbán’s Fidesz reassumed power in 2010, numerous international observers have expressed concern regarding increasing Hungarian influence in the Western Balkans. Specifically, many fear that through intensified meddling in Western Balkan affairs, Orbán’s Hungary would spread its illiberal influence throughout the region and subsequently undermine broader EU policy. In 2019, the process leading to the appointment of Olivér Várhelyi (a Hungarian diplomat close to Orbán) to the position of the European Commissioner for Neighbourhood and Enlargement garnered a salvo of criticism. While this incident briefly attracted the European media floodlights to the topic, the issue of Hungarian influence in the region of the Western Balkans quickly faded into a relative obscurity. Apart from few exceptions and a handful of journalistic accounts (which will be quoted extensively throughout the study), there are little to no attempts to analyse and explain Hungarian foreign and trade policy in the Western Balkans. What interests and strategic considerations drive Hungarian foreign and trade policy in the region? What are Hungarian foreign policy priorities and what instruments does Hungarian foreign policy have at its disposal in the region? Is Orbán’s Western Balkan policy marked by a total discontinuity with regards to previous Hungarian foreign policy towards the region? Who formulates foreign policy priorities in Hungary and what is the interplay between formal and informal actors? What economic interests shape Hungarian foreign policy in the region? How much has Hungarian foreign policy in the region changed as a result of war in Ukraine? To answer these questions, this paper is divided into four main sections. The first focuses on Hungary’s foreign policy strategy in the region. The second, as a special case study, investigates the effects of Orbán’s minority politics in Serbia’s Autonomous Province of Vojvodina (Vajdaság in Hungarian). The third, researching Hungarian media empire in the region, and finally the fourth focusing on the economic drivers of Hungary’s approach in the region.

Cada caso aborda las tendencias específicas en los siguientes ámbitos: visibilidad, descriptores princi- pales, economía global y liderazgo internacional. Además, identifica ciertos patrones en las percepciones de la UE en los ámbitos del desarrollo social, el cambio climático, la investigación y la tecnología, la ayuda al desarrollo, la cultura, el caso del momento clave de la encuesta (pandemia) y la UE como referente normativo. La sección final se centra en ciertas tendencias generales en las percepciones de la UE en América Latina.

Artful Diplomacy: Art as Latin America's Ambassador in ton, D.C. Inter-American Development Bank, January 2008. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0006398.
Full textAbstract:
This exhibition gathers a number of artworks belonging to a diverse group of Latin American embassies and diplomats and their delegations and organizations in Washington, D.C. For a city that boasts such a wealth of artistic institutions on the National Mall, representing art from all corners of the world (the National Museum of African Art, the Freer and Sackler Galleries for Asian arts, and the National Gallery of Art with its impressive collection of European art from the Middle Ages to the present, to name a few), the absence - for whatever reason- of a major institution in the nation¿s capital representing the arts of Latin America is, in itself, a rather negative statement of sorts. This fact, combined with the proclivity of the press to report on the usually not-so-positive aspects of the social, political, and economic realities of the region, tends to indiscriminately put the prestige of Latin American countries at risk, and creates an unappreciative feeling among the public toward a region that, despite its inconsistencies, has excelled culturally for centuries.
