Summary/Abstract: According to its internal peculiarities, modern diplomacy differs from the traditional, two-sided one, in its pluralization towards multilateral diplomacy; as opposed to secret diplomacy, a concept of public diplomacy is being introduced, and the multiplication of international meetings and conferences causes the development of parliamentary diplomacy, while frequent meetings of heads of states and governments develop summit diplomacy. Cold War resulted in a total diplomacy, and it replaced the detente diplomacy. In addition to the economic and military diplomacy, a shuttle diplomacy has been gradually built, after the secret one, comes an open and public diplomacy, and then an alibi and preventive diplomacy. Foreign policy and diplomacy of Bosnia and Herzegovina should, in achieving their primary objectives, make use of all modern forms of diplomatic actions in their efforts to build and develop the country itself as a democratic, lawful, economically prosperous and socially stable state, and to work on its international affirmation and accession to Euro- Atlantic integration.
