It looks at the means of diplomatic action through the power of idea entrepreneurship, agenda setting, mobilizing, and gate keeping. Moving beyond standard concepts of “traditional” and “new” diplomacy, this study highlights the emergence of parallel diplomatic systems with separate aims: state actors who seek primarily to enhance their power, and non-state actors who work toward solving problems. Although both sides show tendencies to compete with each other for supremacy in diplomatic affairs, a more enduring, mutually beneficial solution would be for each to adopt compensatory positions to satisfy what their counterpart cannot.
