| Summary: | In 'Symbolic Insult in Diplomacy: A Subtle Game of Diplomatic Slap', Alisher Faizullaev describes how states and their representatives may use manipulative practices for influencing the opponent. The author distinguishes three forms of using symbolic insult in diplomacy, by misrecognition (diplomatic bypassing), direct confrontation (diplomatic punch) and concealed verbal or nonverbal actions (diplomatic slap). The book focuses on diplomatic slap, employing obscure symbolic insult as a means of tacit manipulation. Analyzing historical and modern cases, Alisher Faizullaev shows that implicit symbolic insult usually appears ambiguously, and allows the offender to stay engaged with the victim. This work reveals vailed aspects of diplomatic practices and represents a valuable source for students and practitioners of international politics and diplomacy. |
