Abstract

AbstractThis concluding chapter highlights the key findings of the book and explores the trajectory of the politics of feminist foreign policy and digital diplomacy amidst evolving and changing geopolitical dynamics. With the abandonment of feminist foreign policy by the new Swedish Conservative-led government in 2022, we unpack the ramifications and opportunities for pursuing a feminist foreign policy and digital diplomacy in a turbulent world. Highlighting the geopolitical significance of gender as a divisive force within the digital sphere, we advance new theoretical knowledge garnered from the case studies examined in this book. By way of conclusion, we showcase prospective avenues for the potential transformative forces of feminist foreign policy and digital diplomacy.
