Summary/Abstract: The increasing international activities of non-governmental actors contribute a novel transnational dimension to diplomacy and international relations. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) participate primarily in multi-actor decision-making processes and can shape their conduct and outcome. NGOs are not sovereign diplomatic entities; thus, they must partner with states and international organisations. However, if representation is considered an important principle of diplomacy, then NGOs are contributing to an essential change in social representation on international arena regardless of the objectives and controversies surrounding NGOs’ own diplomatic legitimacy, responsibility and capacity for representation.
