The New Diplomacy
The current UNO publication, Numero 17, La Nueva Diplomacia, features articles focusing on new diplomacy and international relations, and includes a piece by CPD Director, Jay Wang titled Nation Branding Revisited. Other articles cover topics ranging from Soft Power and Digital Diplomacy to Economic Diplomacy and the role of non-state actors in diplomatic relations.
UNO is a specialist publication in which leading figures from Spain, Portugal and Latin America, together with LLORENTE & CUENCA Partners and Directors, analyze issues related to the world of communication. The articles appear in Spanish and English.
Below are highlights from some of the articles in English:

- Cecilia Julin, Ambassador of Sweden to Spain and Andorra
"It is an uncomfortable struggle for some who are used to the old power – and that includes most of my pre-internet generation. Traditionally, success was closely associated with command and control. Now networks are king, and to build those networks we need new systems and skills and a new license for diplomats to operate. In this new diplomacy, communication –our core business– is on the front line."
- Hugh Elliott, Director of Communication at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office
