Diplomatic and consular law

More about the book

The major international instruments relating to the status of diplomatic, consular, special and permanent missions of States and of their members are scattered in various official publications of the United Nations, of States parties to them, as well in some private editions.It is for the first time, however, that all of these documents are published in one single volume. This makes them now readily available to all those who may need to refer to them in their daily practice in Ministries of Foreign Affairs, in diplomatic missions and in international organizations. This book may also prove helpful to the growing number of experts representing States in many international bodies and conferences who enjoy the special status which for generations had been the exclusive privilege of career diplomats.
