    Special double issue - American Diplomacy
    Editors: Jan Melissen and Paul Sharp
    Guest Editors: Paul Sharp and Geoffrey Wiseman Book Review Editors: Maaike Okano-Heijmans and Kevin D.Stringer

    The United States is encountering what appears to be a not-so-American second century after all. As it does so, there is no more important, yet no more neglected, issue of international significance than the conduct of American diplomacy. This special issue, co-edited by Paul Sharp and Geoffrey Wiseman, goes a long way to remedying this neglect. A team of leading scholars and practitioners take as their point of departure the commitment of President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton to make American diplomacy co-equal with defense and development in the conduct of the United States' international relations. Topics covered include continuity and change in its conduct at the UN, the views from Europe, China and Iran, reform of US public diplomacy, the historical roots of Americans' suspicion of diplomacy, how contemporary diplomacy plays out on the streets, as well as in the chancelleries, of America's allies, and the exceptional character of America's diplomatic culture
