The purpose of this diplomatic – term dictionary is to acquaint the reader with the political terminology used by diplomats, politicians, policy- makers, commentators, analysts, etc, in discussing national and international affairs and politics.
Without such a dictionary, which gives English meaning and Arabic equivalent – not only diplomatic (and some law, military and economic) terms, but major international treaties and agreements, systems of government, the news media are often difficult to fully comprehend.
In addition to the English words, the dictionary contains some Latin, French, etc. terms which are frequently employed in the vocabulary of political, diplomatic, and international relations. Besides, some terms are reinforced with an example of use.
This dictionary will be useful not only for high school and university student, but for the layperson, editor, or non- specialist who needs a handy reference guide to contemporary politics. Thus, it seeks to enhance understanding by explaining political ideologies and doctrines in comprehensive fashion.
