This thesis deals with the presumption that multilateral diplomacy is a possible means to promote good governance. The first part described the origin, definition and criticism of the concept of good governance. Another part deals with transformations of diplomacy and international relations after the Cold War.

The last part is devoted to multilateral diplomacy, international organizations and especially their connection with good governance.

The best space for the use of multilateral diplomacy as a means of promoting good governance is intergovernmental organization.
