Résumé
This paper considers diplomacy as a tool used by the founder of the Mamluk dynasty to consolidate his power and reinforce his legitimacy to govern an empire. Baybars indeed developed an all-out diplomacy by mobilising colossal means: armies, post, administration, spies, ambassadors, not only in the Muslim world, in order to push aside his rivals such as the Hafsid al-Mustansir and to impose himself as the sultan of Islam and Muslims, but also in the direction of the great foreign powers (Mongols, Latins, Byzantines), to whose level he intended to rise.
