Abstract:

The establishment of the sociology of diplomacy as an independent discipline is of particular interest to the social sciences. This may occur through more detailed scientific research of diplomacy at the sociological level. To achieve such a goal we need a sociological explanation of the phenomenon of diplomacy and the necessary scientific research procedures, theoretical and empirical, that are based on hermeneutic methods.
Through scientific research in the sociology of diplomacy, there can be obtained empirical data relevant to the processes of communication, negotiation, war, peace, agreements, and disagreements can serve as a basis for guidance for a state representative.
The hermeneutic method of description, understanding, and explanation of the sociological phenomenon of diplomacy creates a good basis for formulating the thesis of a theory of the sociology of diplomacy.
