Özet
This article focuses on diplomacy and argues that conventional interpretations of diplomacyhave fallen behind the dizzying developments of contemporary international relations. And anew account of diplomacy should be given by developing, first and foremost, a morecomprehensive, inclusive, and up-to-date definition of the phenomenon. Understanding thetransformation that diplomacy has undergone in the historical cycle and exploring theexigencies of its modern incarnation is worthy of more focus in order to grasp a betterunderstanding of world politics. To this end, this contribution primarily tackles “track one” or“traditional” diplomacy and highlights a new and in-depth perspective by scrutinizingdiplomacy as the art of conducting various relations between global political actors andexamining the characteristics of an ideal diplomat. The grievous and destructive disastersexperienced throughout history have revealed that career diplomacy, i.e. the carrying out ofdiplomacy by professionals, is a unique occupation that requires tactful delicacy and expertise.Accordingly, one side of this study explores the evolution of diplomacy, examining thephenomenon along with the postmodern political environment, which corresponds to adiversification of issues in international politics especially since the 1980s. The other sideanalyzes the characteristics of an ideal diplomat in order to offer a better insight into the optimalfunctioning of this essential field.
