<strong>Diplomatic</strong> <strong>World</strong> was first published in 2003 starting<br />
with issue DW1. Since DW52 (March 2017) Barbara<br />
Dietrich has been CEO and publisher of <strong>Diplomatic</strong> <strong>World</strong><br />
Magazine. From the start of her activities in <strong>Diplomatic</strong><br />
<strong>World</strong> Magazine, Mrs Dietrich has been focusing on the<br />
development of the internationalisation of the magazine,<br />
building bridges between continents. Evident content for<br />
the magazine has been related to Brussels and Europe,<br />
but Russia, China, Middle East and Eurasia have been<br />
main topics in the further contextualisation of <strong>Diplomatic</strong><br />
<strong>World</strong>’s content on a global scale.<br />
<strong>Diplomatic</strong> <strong>World</strong> is motivated by people’s thoughts, their<br />
ideas, their personality, their expertise, their charisma. They<br />
are the core asset of every magazine. <strong>Diplomatic</strong> <strong>World</strong>’s<br />
focus will be on collaborating with interesting partners,<br />
expanding on topical views from relevant experts and on<br />
surprising background stories.<br />

DIPLOMATIC WORLD’S VISION …<br />
For <strong>Diplomatic</strong> world the 4 th industrial revolution opens<br />
perspectives for the new Eurasia continent, that extends<br />
from North Sea to Pacific Ocean; where peoples and<br />
cultures in the 3 major political jurisdictions the Eurasian<br />
Economic Union, the EU and China live in peace and<br />
harmony and develop numerous synergies between each<br />
other. Through the 4 th industrial revolution a meeting point<br />
between the East (inspired by communist and Confucian<br />
thinking) and the West (socially corrected market<br />
economy) can be created. This will open new windows of<br />
opportunities to work out new visions for the promotion<br />
of growth; within a broadly supported social model and an<br />
environmentally sound platform: a new model for the future<br />
of humanity.<br />
<strong>Diplomatic</strong> <strong>World</strong> is unique and unrivaled.<br />
One Belt One Road or China’s new silk roads can<br />
create a global interconnected free economic trade and<br />
manufacturing space and a new network for the sharing<br />
economies of tomorrow !<br />
