DIPLOMACY: THE ACADEMIC SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER ELLIPSES, CHOICE and PERSONAL FREEDOMS

Prof. Dr. Paul Ade Silva, Prof. Dr. Esra Hatipoğlu

Abstract


State leaders play an important role in forming policies: their discourses and social media uses, the attitudes they exhibit at national and international meetings, their body language, etc. are followed and their performances are measured. As such, there happen to develop misunderstandings, misevaluations and mistaken inferences between states from time to time, wherein the process may add up to such policies as are not effectual enough as a result of miscalculations.
