Summary

"Secret Diplomacy: How Far Can It Be Eliminated?" by Paul S. Reinsch is a profound investigation into the shadowy world of international diplomacy during the early 1900s. The book grapples with the central question of whether keeping diplomatic dealings secret is a vital part of how countries interact, or if it actually undermines peace and openness between them. The author presents historical events and touches on influential people. He brings up crucial questions about what's morally right and politically effective, suggesting that hidden actions between nations breed doubt and make conflict more likely. Reinsch argues that there's a conflict between democratic values and the fact that diplomacy often happens behind closed doors. Overall, the book creates a base to encourage international trust by suggesting more openness, that's promoted through a mix of historical context and critical thought.
