Sinopsis

Excerpt from A Guide to Diplomatic Practice, Vol. 1

The death of Dr. L. Oppenheim, Whewell Professor of International Law in the University of Cambridge, on October 8, 1919, has deprived this revised edition of the advantage of his supervision, but it is not thought by the author that he would have disapproved of the alterations. These consist chiefly of the excision of the Russian Court ceremonial for the reception of foreign diplomatists and their wives, and rules governing precedence among such persons, and an enlargement of the section on Conferences in Volume II, Chapter XXVI, including the Peace Conference of Paris, 1919. In Chapter III, the history of the office of Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs has been re-written, and the account of diplomatic archives in various European Countries has been enlarged. In Chapter X, an account is given of the ultimatums delivered in 1914 which preceded the Great War, but otherwise there is no change to be noted in diplomatic practice up to the present date. The meetings of the "Supreme Council" to deal with problems arising out of the Peace Treaties are in all probability unlikely to be continued when once the condition of things in Europe shall again have become normal. The numbering of the paragraphs has been preserved throughout, and is unaffected by the excisions specified above. Chapter V on Titles and Precedence of Sovereigns has for the most part ceased to have any but an historical interest, owing to the disappearance of sovereignty in the German empire and its component states, in Austria-Hungary and in Russia.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from A Guide to Diplomatic Practice, Vol. 1

The idea of editing a series of contributions to Inter national Law and Diplomacy was conceived some years ago, and' arrangements were made accordingly with intending contributors. The outbreak of the great war jeopardized the Whole undertaking, and it became doubt ful whether the plan would ever be realized. However, Sir Ernest Satow, in spite of the troubled times, has succeeded in completing the present work on Diplomacy which he had undertaken to write for the series, and there is also ready for the press a monograph on International Conventions and Third States, by Mr. Roxburgh, which will be published presently. Further, there is hope that a work on Private International Law, treating the matter on a rational and comparative basis, may be published in 1918 from the pen of Dr. John Pawley Bate. A volume on Diplomatic History, by Mr. G. G. Butler, Fellow and Lecturer of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and other contributions are in preparation.
