Abstract
Book synopsis: Reflection on what separates the state of peace and the state of war conditions the history of diplomacy to the very extent that, in the political history of the Ancien Régime, the effective and immediate management of armed conflicts - open, planned or potential - is a major requirement of good community governance. Alongside the clash of arms, before or after it but also during it, practices of communication and exchange are continuously developing, the primary goal of which is to draw the possible framework for correct relations between communities, whatever the forces, the games. of scale, the territories of reference and the horizons involved. These practices are particularly polymorphic and flexible and, even before being the subject of treaties and giving content to the new profession of ambassador - especially from the 17th century onwards - they are groped according to evolving tempos, customs, speeches, writings and hierarchies. . Thus is posed another way of doing politics. Thus emerges, over the course of the history that we can make of it, a crucial part of the regulation of the system of States.
