Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: The U.S. preference for bilateral diplomacy (in which Washington is almost always the dominant party) while allowing a circumscribed admixture of multilateral diplomacy (in which it is at least primus inter pares) is evolving towards a new form of unilateral - or hegemonic - diplomacy. On this view, hegemonic diplomacy goes further than a belief in the inherent wisdom of American values backed by raw but beneficent use of its military and economic power. It presumes that the traditional Westphalian diplomatic culture and norms do not generally apply to the hegemon. This paper explores these claims and considers whether the current eclipse of State Department diplomats (the soft power agents of persuasion) by the Defense and intelligence departments (the hard power agents of brute force) reveals merely a short-term bureaucratic marginalization or rather more ominously portends a new form of American diplomacy.
