This article explores Amir Temur’s diplomatic system through the analytical frameworks of contemporary international relations theory, particularly realism, liberalism, and constructivism [6, p.112]. It seeks to reinterpret Temur’s foreign policy not merely as an extension of military expansion, but as a structured and strategically balanced diplomatic model shaped by geopolitical, economic, and socio-cultural determinants [1, p.45; 6, p.118].
The study focuses on key dimensions of Temur’s diplomacy, including the institutional development of interstate relations, the strategic utilization of transcontinental trade routes such as the Silk Road, and the deployment of cultural-symbolic power as an instrument of political legitimacy [6, p.120]. Special emphasis is placed on the normative aspects of governance reflected in the so-called “Temur’s Code,” which demonstrates early elements of diplomatic regulation and interstate conduct [1, p.52].
The findings indicate that Amir Temur’s diplomatic practice embodies an embryonic form of multipolar international order, where hard power and soft power were effectively integrated [2, p.97; 6, p.130].
