The author emphasizes the role of diplomats and their reporting in shaping foreign policy, highlighting case studies from the First Vietnam War and the Western Sahara conflict to illustrate how dominant policy concerns influenced diplomatic narratives. The analysis suggests that recent U.S. foreign policy, particularly under Donald Trump, reflects a continuity with past administrations rather than a radical departure, raising concerns about the implications for weaker nations and stateless peoples. The book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of diplomacy today, despite its occasionally dense prose. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
