The safety of diplomats has animated recent public and political
debates. As diplomatic personnel are increasingly targeted by
terrorism and political violence while overseas, sending states are
augmenting host nations' security measures with their own.
Protective arrangements range from deploying military, police, and
private security guards to relocating embassies to suburban
compounds. Yet, reinforced security may also hamper effective
diplomacy and international relations. Scholars and practitioners
from around the world bring to light a large body of empirical
information available for the first time in Diplomatic Security.
This book explores the global contexts and consequences of keeping
embassies and their personnel safe. The essays in this volume offer
case studies that illustrate the different arrangements in the
U.S., China, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Turkey,
Israel, and Russia. Considering the historical and legal contexts,
authors examine how states protect their diplomats abroad, what
drives changes in existing protective arrangements, and how such
measures affect the safety of diplomats and the institution of
diplomacy. Diplomatic Security not only reveals how a wide variety
of states handle security needs but also illuminates the broader
theoretical and policy implications for the study of diplomacy and
security alike.
