Abstract
This edited book is aimed to evaluate and examine the practices and applications of digital diplomacy in the OSCE region. As a security organisation, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) also prioritises its member states’ cyber security and cyberspace activities. This book examines two key areas where digital diplomacy challenges traditional diplomatic practices of the OSCE member states: institutional adaptation and policy innovation in the OSCE region. In other words, for institutional adaptation, this book investigates how capable and motivated foreign ministries are at the institutional level to shift to digital diplomacy. And for policy innovation, this book explores how digital diplomacy affects the fundamental diplomatic tasks of representation, communication, and relationship management at the policy level.
