Book Synopsis The British Diplomatic Service, 1815-1914 by : Raymond Jones
Download or read book The British Diplomatic Service, 1815-1914 written by Raymond Jones and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 1983-08-24 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous accounts of the British Foreign Office have left the impression that the diplomatic service was an insignificant appendage of the Foreign Office. Jones's study redresses the balance, demonstrating that the diplomatic service was an equal if not senior partner with the Foreign Office in the execution of British foreign policy. After a brief introduction to the history of diplomacy, Jones follows the changes wrought in the service by the intense political and social pressures of the nineteenth century. Against the background of the growth of the Victorian Civil Service and the emergence of Great Britain as a world power in the age of the Pax Britannica, Jones traces the demise of the family embassy, and of a diplomacy deeply rooted in patronage, and the corresponding development of the professional, bureaucratic elite of the Edwardian era. In case studies of the Near Eastern crisis of 1839-41, the Mason Sliddell Affair of the American Civil War, and the Dogger Bank Crisis of 1904, the volume sets forth the working environment of an embassy, both before and after the communications revolution following upon the introduction of the telegraph. Also examined are the social structures of the unreformed diplomatic service and the later, professional service. The volume will be of interest to historians of diplomacy and foreign policy, to political scientists, and to students of social change.

Book Synopsis The Diplomats' World by : Markus Mösslang
Download or read book The Diplomats' World written by Markus Mösslang and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-09-11 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume provides an original perspective on diplomacy and diplomatic practice between the Congress of Vienna and the outbreak of the First World War. By focusing on cultural dimensions, The Diplomats' World aims to give a broader picture of diplomacy than usual. While most modern works on foreign affairs concentrate on the functional role of diplomacy and marginalize the nature of diplomatic services, this volume links form and content, presenting diplomacy as both a real world experience and a structural element in international relations. Drawing on the diplomats' many and varied encounters between their own individual and professional circles and the 'wider world', it discusses diplomatic history as part of the cultural history of politics. Among the topics covered are the operating norms of the diplomatic establishment, the influence of the public sphere on the conduct of diplomacy, and the role of etiquette and protocol in diplomatic encounters."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis The Foreign Office Mind by : T. G. Otte
Download or read book The Foreign Office Mind written by T. G. Otte and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this pioneering approach to the study of international history, T. G. Otte reconstructs the underlying principles, élite perceptions and 'unspoken assumptions' that shaped British foreign policy between the death of Palmerston and the outbreak of the First World War. Grounded in a wide range of public and private archival sources, and drawing on sociological insights, The Foreign Office Mind presents a comprehensive analysis of the foreign service as a 'knowledge-based organization', rooted in the social and educational background of the diplomatic élite and the broader political, social and cultural fabric of Victorian and Edwardian Britain. The book charts how the collective mindset of successive generations of professional diplomats evolved, and reacted to and shaped changes in international relations during the second half of the nineteenth century, including the balance of power and arms races, the origins of appeasement and the causes of the First World War.

Book Synopsis The Foreign Office and British Diplomacy in the Twentieth Century by : Gaynor Johnson
Download or read book The Foreign Office and British Diplomacy in the Twentieth Century written by Gaynor Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the evolution of the Foreign Office in the 20th century and the way in which it has responded to Britain's changing role in international affairs. The last century was one of unprecedented change in the way foreign policy and diplomacy were conducted. The work of 'The Office' expanded enormously in the 20th century, and oversaw the transition from Empire to Commonwealth, with the merger of the Foreign and Colonial Offices taking place in the 1960s. The book focuses on the challenges posed by waging world war and the process of peacemaking, as well as the diplomatic gridlock of the Cold War. Contributions also discusses ways in which the Foreign and Commonwealth Office continues to modernise to meet the challenges of diplomacy in the 21st century. This book was previously published as a special issue of the journal Contemporary British History.
