DESCRIPTION
With the spreading dangers of weapons of mass destruction; new and more malignant forms of terrorism; regional and sectarian conflicts; failed and failing states; global economic dislocation; and transnational health, energy and environmental concerns, diplomacy has moved beyond state-to-state relations. Today it includes private sector entities, international organizations and NGOs, criminal cartels, militant groups, and local and international media. This seminar will explore the context of US diplomacy today, while honing essential written and oral communication skills.
