Heine, Jorge creator text WaterlooCA The Centre for International Governance Innovation 2006 monographic [3], 24 p. Opines that the traditional model of diplomacy, founded on the principles of national sovereignty and of statecraft, is becoming less relevant as a field of new influential actors enter the international system. Calls for a new approach - one in which diplomats project their nation's values and interests to the growing field of international players, focusing on a critical set of issue areas of special relevance to the mission. Argues that diplomats are no longer sheltered from the political realm; that they are more accessible by and have wider access to non-state actors; and, that they must respond to the vast array of demands these new factors pose. 8/9/07 JOYD 01.02.05 H4681
