In this session Dr. Bakare Najimdeen argues how a nation’s peacekeeping efforts represent and qualify as military diplomacy. He points out that all military personnel, even foot soldiers, can engage in military diplomacy. He indicates that traditional diplomacy is characteristically non-coercive, while the methods and implementation of military diplomacy can be both non-coercive and coercive. This session is hosted by Hester Postma, project officer on Military Diplomacy.
