Questo lavoro si propone l’obiettivo di analizzare il modo in cui le narrazioni diplomatiche si sono adattate all’avvento del digi- tale impiegando, a sostegno di processi di autorappresentazione e nella costruzione delle cosiddette narrazioni strategiche (Mi- skimmon, O’Loughlin, Roselle, 2013) i social network sites.
In the contemporary context, with the multicentric proliferation of powerful international actors, states have to manage the construction of their image, defining their role and aspirations. With the re-definition of the state centric politics, stories become relevant: communication is a form of power (Castells, 2009), and networked forms of communication are a way to conquer the transnational public spheres, built through networks of mutual affinity (Volkmer, 2014). Therefore, political actors must produce their own narratives.
