Abstract

In the international community, law and diplomacy have always complemented each other and depended on each other. But lawyers and diplomats treat international affairs differently, making them competitors as important instruments of international exchange. Diplomacy is the art and practise of negotiating between national representatives, while international laws are the codes of conduct that bind these negotiations and interactions. Because of their interdependency, the researcher first distinguished these concepts from their supposed origins before bringing them to a point of convergence (the League of Nations), where their differences are nearly impossible to dissect. The sequence (chronology) of their evolution constitutes the core value of this paper. Conceptual clarification, theoretical framework, types and sources of international law, diplomatic institutions, as well as findings and recommendations gave the study a more indebted meaning.
