  2. Research Network Aims • Rethink the role of culture and practices of translation in the field of diplomacy. • Initiate and develop new discussions that widen the vocabularies and conceptual frameworks currently employed within studies of diplomacy. • Explore and assess future trends in cultural aspects of diplomacy, in particular around different actors, spaces and modes of diplomacy. • Map new priorities and possibilities for the study and practice of diplomacy, with a particular focus on issues of culture, translation and space.

  3. Spaces of Diplomatic Culture How are spaces produced as diplomatic spaces through the ritualised performance of actors? How does space shape the formation of diplomatic consensus? How does the emergence of digital spaces produce new and different forms of diplomacy? Can ‘old’ diplomatic practices be translated for these ‘new’ spaces or does it require an entirely new theorisation?

  4. Agenda-setting in Diplomacy

  5. How can diplomatic objectives be met when resources and overseas missions are being cut? • How can a balance be struck between virtual and physical diplomacy, and what might this look like? • To what extent does the changing media landscape and increasing pressures for transparency require new diplomatic practices e.g. regarding consensus, negotiation, confidentiality? • How can digital media be used in policy making? • How can diplomatic policy respond to shifts away from traditional power centres (e.g. UN Security Council) and towards ‘emerging powers’ and informal/ alternative groupings?
