"The textbook The Lingua Franca of Diplomacy: English for International Relations’ is a result of a years-long quest of the author for compiling a teaching aid of English for specific purposes in the fields of IR and foreign policy.

Therefore, they constitute the main target group of potential users. It can also be of interest for students, specialising in Political Science, International Security, and ... |
