CEVAP:

Coercive diplomacy refers to the usage of threat of force by a state or group of state to achieve its/their objectives in international relations. Coercive diplomacy usually involves the military strategy to force other states or non-state actors to behave in certain manner. Difference from the use of military force is that in coercive diplomacy, it is the “threat” of using military force rather than the “actual” use of military force that is used to achieve the intended result. According to George (1974), there are different variants of coercive diplomacy including , tacit ultimatum, try-and-see, and gradual turning of the screw.
