Description: The 2011 uprisings in the Middle East proved that democracy retains its appeal even to people who have long lived without it. They also illustrated how in a high - speed media - centric world conventional diplomacy has become an anachronism. Not only do events move quickly but so too does public reaction to those events. The cushion of time that enabled policymakers to judiciously gather information and weigh alternatives is gone. Real - Time Diplomacy analyzes the essential but often unhappy marriage between diplomacy and new media evaluating media's reach and influence and determining how policy makers might take advantage of media's real - time capabilities rather than being driven by them.
