This volume bridges this gap by offering a fresh, comprehensive and realistic overview of African diplomacy. The book examines African diplomatic practice. Chapters explore how different types of diplomacy have developed over time, including energy diplomacy, economic diplomacy and quiet diplomacy. Crucially, the book assesses how certain events have allowed Africa to use certain types of diplomacy to yield better outcomes for itself. Including contributions from an international team of scholars, policy makers and experts from the diplomatic world, the book provides a comprehensive guide to African diplomacy and challenges the current dominant usage of Northern perspectives on diplomacy studies." --Cover. 0aDiplomacy. 0aInternational relations. 0aCultural diplomacyzAfrica. 6aDiplomatie. 6aRelations internationales. 6aDiplomatie culturellezAfrique. 7adiplomacy.2aat 7ainternational relations.2aat 0aAfricaxPolitics and governmenty1960- 0aAfricaxForeign relationsy1960- 6aAfriquexRelations extâerieuresy1960- 6aAfriquexPolitique et gouvernementy1960- 0aPrint books.2local941 aBotha, Sven,eeditor.1 aVan Wyk, Jo-Ansie,eeditor.08iebook version :z9781529222586 2lcccBOOKS c608110d608110 00102lcc4070aAUbAUcDISPLAYd2025-12-04l0oDT31 .K38 2024pAU00000000020985r2025-12-04 12:01:00v915.00w2025-12-04yBOOKS
