Over the past decade, there has been an explosion of litigation
at the international and domestic levels concerning consular access
for foreign nationals charged with a criminal offence. The issue
has complicated relations between countries, with the majority of
litigation involving the United States, which has adopted a
restrictive view of the consular access obligation.
This book brings together for the first time relevant
documentary sources on the law of consular access. The book
includes significant excerpts alongside commentary on the
documents, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions. While
presenting information on the Vienna Convention on Consular
Relations, the book presents other sources, including bilateral
consular agreements, multilateral treaties, and key court cases
from various jurisdictions. Many of these sources are not readily
accessible.
The Law of Consular Access will be of interest to scholars of
international law, human rights, and international relations. It
will also be of interest to private and government lawyers, as well
as diplomats and consuls.
