Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Issues in Contemporary Diplomacy (II): Diplomacy and Human Rights - Building Bridges in a Changing World" by Hichem Karoui delivers an insightful analysis of how diplomatic mechanisms can effectively promote and protect human rights in today's complex international environment. This scholarly work addresses the fundamental question of "how the practice of diplomacy can promote human rights in this complex context". Karoui's systematic approach examines the evolution of both diplomatic practice and human rights frameworks, demonstrating how these fields have become increasingly interconnected. The book explores how "the nature of relations between states and international communities has changed with shifts in international politics and global powers", requiring new approaches to rights-based diplomacy. Through twelve comprehensive chapters, readers gain insights into historical developments, contemporary challenges, and future opportunities for advancing human rights through diplomatic channels.The work addresses critical contemporary issues, including the balance between national sovereignty and universal human rights, the economic dimensions of rights protection, and the transformative impact of technology on both diplomatic practice and human rights advocacy. Karoui demonstrates how "commitment to human rights forms the basis for building international relations based on mutual respect and justice".Particularly relevant for digital-native readers, the book examines how "continued advances in communication technology and the widespread dissemination of information" have made "international policies on human rights more influential and important in building a more equitable and peaceful world". The author provides practical frameworks for understanding how diplomatic strategies must evolve to address contemporary human rights challenges whilst maintaining effectiveness in traditional interstate relations.This essential volume combines theoretical rigour with practical applicability, making it invaluable for practitioners, scholars, and anyone seeking to understand the crucial intersection of diplomacy and human rights in our globalised world.
