Summary
Henry Kissinger: Diplomacy
This book is a brilliant history of diplomacy given in brisk, lively and energetic lines by the influential former US Secretary of State. Kissinger's capital study is a kind of "inside view" into the dynamics and mechanism of international relations and the art of diplomacy.
Combining various interesting episodes from the history of diplomacy with his own rich experience in negotiations with the most important world leaders and actors on the international scene, Henry Kissinger offers an insight into the dynamics of international diplomacy - from a historical and personal perspective. At the same time, this book presents Kissinger's answer to the question of how the world we live in works and what is the specificity of the American approach to foreign policy in relation to other nations.
This, according to many, controversial work represents the pinnacle of a life dedicated to diplomacy and international relations, and is the fruit of theoretical-historical knowledge and long and ambitious diplomatic practice.
