Diplomacy at Critical Junctures – A New Video on “Diplomatic Nexus” Channel

New video on my “Diplomatic Nexus” YouTube channel: A conversation with a young but already known scholar in the field of international relations and diplomacy Seanon Wong. Dr. Wong is an Associate Professor and the Head of the Undergraduate Program in Government and Public Administration, and the Director of the International Affairs Research Centre, the Institute of Asia-Pacific Studies, the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He is also an Executive Editor of the International Relations of the Asia-Pacific journal, Area Editor of the Oxford Bibliographies (International Relations), and a Member of the International Editorial Board of The Hague Journal of Diplomacy.

In the conversation, Professor Wong and I discussed the features of modern diplomacy and diplomatic studies, the role of individuals, body language, intentions and intercultural differences in diplomacy, relations between IR and diplomatic studies, as well as other issues related to understanding diplomatic theory and practice.
