Diplomatica

Aims & Scope

Diplomatica: A Journal of Diplomacy and Society addresses the broad range of work being done across the social sciences and the humanities that takes diplomacy as its focus of investigation.

The journal explores and investigates diplomacy as an extension of social interests, forces, and environments.

It is multidisciplinary, providing a space to unite perspectives from diplomatic history (humanities) and diplomatic studies (social sciences) in particular.

It is interdisciplinary, expanding beyond its disciplinary foundation of history to enrich historical perspectives with innovative analyses from other disciplines.

It seeks to broaden the study of diplomacy temporally, contributing to a re-appraisal of diplomacy across the modern and early modern eras and beyond, in this way bridging temporal divides and introducing debate between scholars of different periodizations.

It is determinedly global in orientation, providing a space for inter-regional comparisons.

The journal is published in cooperation with the New Diplomatic History (NDH) Network.
