THE ROLE OF ENGLISH AS A DIPLOMATIC LANGUAGE IN GLOBAL POLITICS

Аннотация

It is obvious that effective communication is a crucial tool in international relations, and the English language has become one of the most widely used languages in diplomacy and it is influencing international negotiations, political discourse, and global governance. This research work explores the historical evolution of English as a diplomatic language, its benefits and negative effects, and its future role in international communication. The research not only talks about how English enhances communication efficiency, but also points out concerns about linguistic hegemony and marginalization. Also, this paper argues that even though English remains the major language of diplomacy, multilingual approaches are considered an essential part of global diplomacy. The findings are based on real-world examples and international policies. Keywords: English, diplomacy, international relations, political discourse, global governance, linguistic hegemony and marginalization, multilingual approaches.
