Summary/Abstract: The article below aims to combine two aspects of research in the domain of international relations. These are studies on diasporas and diplomacy, as well as taking into account other players, such as cities, and their role in international relations. We are trying to find an answer to the question of who the players engaged in this process are, the direction of this process and its conduct. The article will also show the connection between diasporas and cities’ diplomacy. We are looking at contemporary cities, their relations with diasporas from a historical perspective. We are interested in how the presence of diasporas in the public sphere over the years can be effectively used to promote a policy of social integration and to achieve city diplomacy-related aims.
