Of Diplomatic Immunity in the United States: a Claims Fund Proposal
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Fordham University School of Law Fordham International Law Journal Volume 4, Issue 1 1980 Article 6 Compensation for “Victims” of Diplomatic Immunity in the United States: A Claims Fund Proposal R. Scott Garley∗ ∗ Copyright c 1980 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj Compensation for “Victims” of Diplomatic Immunity in the United States: A Claims Fund Proposal R. Scott Garley Abstract This Note will briefly trace the development of diplomatic immunity law in the United States, including the changes adopted by the Vienna Convention, leading to the passage of the DRA in 1978. The discussion will then focus upon the DRA and point out a few of the areas in which the statute may fail to provide adequate protection for the rights of private citizens in the United States. As a means of curing the inadequacies of the present DRA, the feasibility of a claims fund designed to compensate the victims of the tortious and criminal acts of foreign diplomats in the United States will be examined. COMPENSATION FOR "VICTIMS" OF DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITY IN THE UNITED STATES: A CLAIMS FUND PROPOSAL INTRODUCTION In 1978, Congress passed the Diplomatic Relations Act (DRA)1 which codified the 1961 Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Rela- tions. 2 The DRA repealed 22 U.S.C. §§ 252-254, the prior United States statute on the subject,3 and established the Vienna Conven- tion as the sole standard to be applied in cases involving the immu- nity of diplomatic personnel4 in the United States. -
The Inviolability of Diplomatic Archives
THE INVIOLABILITY OF DIPLOMATIC ARCHIVES TIMMEDIATELY following Pearl Harbor, officials of the em- A bassy of the United States at Tokyo and of the Japanese embassy Downloaded from http://meridian.allenpress.com/american-archivist/article-pdf/8/1/26/2742083/aarc_8_1_k010662414m87w48.pdf by guest on 25 September 2021 at Washington destroyed their confidential diplomatic records. American Ambassador Joseph C. Grew asserted, "The moment we knew that the news of war had been confirmed I gave orders to burn all our codes and confidential correspondence."1 Huge bonfires which emanated from the grounds of the Japanese embassy at Wash- ington served as dramatic evidence that the Japanese treated their important archives similarly.2 These actions illustrate that modern states are unwilling to entrust their vital documents to the diplomatic representatives of neutral governments at the outbreak of war, even though international law and practice dictate that records so de- posited are inviolate. Such an attitude stimulates an inquiry into the extent to which diplomatic archives are considered inviolable under international law and the extent to which the principles of interna- tional law are being observed. This subject has never been adequately investigated by scholars, although it is a matter of definite im- portance to the international lawyer and diplomat on the one hand, and the historian and the archivist on the other. What are diplomatic archives? For the purposes of this paper diplomatic archives are defined as the written evidences of the -

Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe. -

De Facto and De Jure Annexation: a Relevant Distinction in International Law? Israel and Area C: a Case Study
FREE UNIVERSITY OF BRUSSELS European Master’s Degree in Human Rights and Democratisation A.Y. 2018/2019 De facto and de jure annexation: a relevant distinction in International Law? Israel and Area C: a case study Author: Eugenia de Lacalle Supervisor: François Dubuisson ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, our warmest thanks go to our thesis supervisor, François Dubuisson. A big part of this piece of work is the fruit of his advice and vast knowledge on both the conflict and International Law, and we certainly would not have been able to carry it out without his help. It has been an amazing experience to work with him, and we have learned more through having conversations with him than by spending hours doing research. We would like to deeply thank as well all those experts and professors that received an e-mail from a stranger and accepted to share their time, knowledge and opinions on such a controversial topic. They have provided a big part of the foundation of this research, all the while contributing to shape our perspectives and deepen our insight of the conflict. A list of these outstanding professionals can be found in Annex 1. Finally, we would also like to thank the Spanish NGO “Youth, Wake-Up!” for opening our eyes to the Israeli-Palestinian reality and sparkling our passion on the subject. At a more technical level, the necessary field research for this dissertation would have not been possible without its provision of accommodation during the whole month of June 2019. 1 ABSTRACT Since the occupation of the Arab territories in 1967, Israel has been carrying out policies of de facto annexation, notably through the establishment of settlements and the construction of the Separation Wall.
