This paper discussesthe transformation of traditional diplomacy into global diplomacy by referring to modifications in four components of diplomacy: context, rules andnorms, channels of communication, and actors and roles. After discussing the historical evolution of diplomacy, this paper argues that diplomacy hastransformed in order to adapt itself to the newly emerging conditions of the 21st century. It has become a multi-actor and multi-level network phenomenon.However, this diplomatic transformation has not diluted the traditional sovereignty-based diplomacy.
