Book excerpt: Philippe Guillaume brings the reader on a journey across 20th-century international relations, showing what goes on behind closed doors. He combines snippets of humor and personal anecdotes with analyses of governmental decisions and a lively description of the inner workings of our world. Following Philippe Guillaume across the globe, as he delves into the culture and sensitivities of countries from Jamaica to Iran and Poland to Sub-Saharan Africa, a new understanding arises from the complexity of decisions, the changing influences of strategic geography and the impacts of some individuals on world politics. This book describes the role Belgium and its diplomats have in the world. It combines a deep comprehension of the Russian empire, the country’s deteriorating relations with Gaddafi, its actions in Middle-Eastern trade. It reminds the reader that Belgium was a testing ground for the EU and had a central role in the construction of the European Union.

Book excerpt: Foreword by Mr. Didier Reynders, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and European Affairs. Belgium hosts numerous diplomatic missions. These are either accredited to the Kingdom of Belgium or to one of the international organisations headquartered in Belgium. Their operation, as well as the legal status and privileges and immunities of their members, are essentially regulated by the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, dated 18 April 1961. This handbook describes Belgium’s practice vis-à-vis these missions, and analyses the day-to-day implementation of the Vienna Convention by the various Belgian authorities. It systematically reviews the limited number of legislative or regulatory provisions, the Government’s practice – set out inter alia in several ‘circular notes’ communicated to the missions present in Belgium – and, additionally, identifies the jurisprudence of courts and tribunals and highlights the possible deviations from the practice of the executive branch. Designed as a guide intended primarily for diplomatic missions established in Belgium, this handbook is also relevant for civil servants, judges, lawyers and bailiffs encountering questions of diplomatic law in Belgium, as well as for students and researchers seeking information on national practice in this area of law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nature’s Diplomats explores the development of science-based and internationally conceived nature protection in its foundational years before the 1960s, the decade when it launched from obscurity onto the global stage. Raf De Bont studies a movement while it was still in the making and its groups were still rather small, revealing the geographies of the early international preservationist groups, their social composition, self-perception, ethos, and predilections, their ideals and strategies, and the natures they sought to preserve. By examining international efforts to protect migratory birds, the threatened European bison, and the mountain gorilla in the interior of the Belgian Congo, Nature’s Diplomats sheds new light on the launch of major international organizations for nature protection in the aftermath of World War II. Additionally, it covers how the rise of ecological science, the advent of the Cold War, and looming decolonization forced a rethinking of approach and rhetoric; and how old ideas and practices lingered on. It provides much-needed historical context for present-day convictions about and approaches to the preservation of species and the conservation of natural resources, the involvement of local communities in conservation projects, the fate of extinct species and vanished habitats, and the management of global nature.

Download or read book The Failed Coup of Belgian Diplomacy written by Michael Auwers and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Failed Coup of Belgian Diplomacy challenges conventional ideas about Belgian foreign policy during World War I. According to the prevailing narrative, the inexperienced politicians representing Belgium at the Paris Peace Conference made a strategic mistake by betting heavily on territorial expansion at the expense of, among others, the neutral Netherlands. That narrative attributes too much power to politicians as makers of foreign policy and underestimates the impact of diplomats. The book aims to correct these ideas. It sees the implementation of Belgian foreign policy as the result of a conflict between diplomats and argues that an emerging and impatient generation of young diplomats, inspired by the colonial ventures of the late King Leopold II, pushed aside their older colleagues, sidelined King Albert I and took over the reins of Belgian diplomacy. Through this Belgian story, The Failed Coup of Belgian Diplomacy nuances the common narrative that describes World War I as a decisive period for the takeover of the diplomatic apparatus by European politicians. In most belligerent countries, diplomats were surely accused of incompetence. Many of them were also removed from the center of European politics in the early stages of the war and failed to regain their influence at the peace conference. In Belgium, on the other hand, a group of young diplomats managed to shift politicians from neutrality to an annexationist program with relative ease. The ultimate Belgian failure at Versailles, this book argues, was largely caused by the lack of consensus within the diplomatic corps on foreign policy objectives. This absence weakened the cohesion and effectiveness of Belgian diplomacy.

Download or read book The Failure to Prevent Genocide in Rwanda written by Frederik Grünfeld and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is about the failure to prevent genocide in Rwanda in 1994. In particular, the research focuses on why the early warnings of an emerging genocide were not translated into early preventative action. The warnings were well documented by the most authoritative source, the Canadian U.N. peace-keeping commander General Romeo Dallaire and sent to the leading political civil servants in New York. The communications and the decisionmaking are scrutinized, i.e., who received what messages at what time, to whom the messages were forwarded and which (non-) decisions were taken in response to the alarming reports of weapon deliveries and atrocities. This book makes clear that this genocide could have been prevented. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.

Download or read book Eu Diplomatic Law written by Sanderijn Duquet and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EU Diplomatic Law provides a thorough analysis of the interactions between the European Union (EU) and international diplomatic and consular law. Over the past six decades, the EU has been granted unique powers that enable it to act prominently on the international plane, thereby developing a worldwide bilateral and multilateral diplomatic network. Much like the States, the EU sends ambassadors to all corners of the world and accredits permanent missions at its Brussels' headquarters. These developments shake the foundations of diplomatic and consular law, as these branches of international law are based on the principles of state sovereignty, non-interference, and reciprocity. Traditional conceptions of international law only allow states to perform diplomatic and consular functions, leaving little room for non-state entities such as the EU. Sanderijn Duquet addresses this fundamental problem by re-visiting the foundations of diplomatic and consular law, as well as analysing EU practice in initiating, conducting, and terminating diplomatic and consular relations. In particular, she focuses on: the scope of EU diplomatic and consular powers, especially in relationship to its member states; its application of the Vienna Conventions and customary international law; the EU's use of creative legal techniques; the diplomatic and consular protection of EU citizens; questions of protocol and precedence; and the legal status of the EU's diplomatic staff and premises abroad. By critically analysing these issues, this book assesses the specific contribution the EU makes to the shaping of diplomatic and consular law.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman orientation was the keystone of the religious revolution of the Catholic revival. New or renewed congregations, priests close to the people & militant laymen gave a decidedly social & activist turn to the faith. At this crossroad of religion & modernity, the papacy could all the more make its weight felt as the Belgian Constitution granted the clergy a unique liberty in relations with Rome. Over time, the Vatican would exert a powerful impact on the shape of modern politics in Belgium. The special relationship between Belgium & Rome was no one-way traffic. From a somewhat curious ecclesiastical court hopelessly entangled in the old spider web of the Papal States, the papacy became the institution we know today, the leader of a "modern" Catholic opinion. Belgium played a role of major importance in this transformation. The central theme of the book can therefore be defined as a process of mutual integration, if not acculturation, across the Alps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The political history of Belgium is a fascinating story that should not be kept from speakers of English in Belgium and abroad. From an international point of view, Belgium has been a trendsetter in many ways. It was the first country on the European continent to experience a quick process of industrialisation, with the development of the first liberal state following closely behind. More than elsewhere, liberalism reigned supreme in the 19th century, and as a result the social question was raised with great vehemence. The World Wars put Belgium in the middle of the fighting twice over; especially after 1945, the country played a prominent international role, first in the foundation of the Atlantic alliance and the European construction, and later in the decolonisation of the Congo. In the meantime, Belgium has developed into one of the countries experiencing the full force of globalisation, and, thanks to Brussels, into one of the preeminent international political centres. Belgium is also a model of pacification democracy. Throughout many conflicts during the 19th and 20th centuries, an enduring compromise grew between Catholics and freethinkers, making Belgium one of the most pluralistic countries in Europe today. The fierce conflict between workers and employers, in its turn, led to a well-functioning model of a consultation and welfare state. Two cultures live together in Belgium. Up until the second half of the past century, the Flemish majority was at an economic, political and cultural disadvantage; during the process of catching up, coinciding with the demise of the Walloon economy, a complex federal model developed, in which cosmopolitan Brussels takes a very special position. This book aims to offer a historical perspective in interpreting the current tensions in Belgian politics based on scientific literature. Political History of Belgium is without doubt the outstanding authoritative reference work about the political history of a country at the centre of the development of Europe. As such, it offers essential background information for politicians, policy makers, civil servants, journalists, researchers, students and anyone with an interest in Belgium and Europe.
