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

    444 Australian Year Book of Znternatio~lLaw X - DIPLOMATIC AND CONSULAR RELATIONS Diplomatic relations - establishment of diplomatic relations - Angola - Federated States of Micronesia On 2 June 1988 the Acting Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Mr Duffy, issued the following news release, in part: The Acting Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Mr Michael Duffy, said Australia's first Ambassador to Angola, Mr Ed Ride, had presented his credentials to President Jose Eduardo dos Santos, in the Angolan capital, Luanda, on May 30. Mr Ride, who is High Commissioner in Zambia, will have non-resident accreditation to Angola. Mr Duffy said that, though separated from Angola by a great distance, Australia had a keen interest in developments there. Australia particularly deplored South Africa's armed incursions into Angola, which were a blatant violation of Angola's sovereignty and territorial integrity. "The Australian Government hopes that recent diplomaticmoves will lead to a just and peaceful settlement in Angola," he said. On 25 October 1989 the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Senator Gareth Evans, issued a news release which stated in part: The Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Senator Gareth Evans, today announced the appointment of Mr Ken Braze1 as Australia's first Ambassador to the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). In 1987, Australia was the first country, other than the United States, to establish diplomatic relations with the FSM when the Australian Consul- General in Honolulu was appointed non-resident Minister to the FSM. Mr Brazel's appointment follows the announcement in July by Senator Evans, during his visit to the FSM, that Australia would establish an embassy in the capital, Pohnpei.

  • Colonial Representation in the Nineteenth Century
    81 COLONIAL REPRESENTATION IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY PART II Some Queensland and Other Australian Agents-General [By CLEM LACK, B.A., Dip.Jour., F.R.Hist.S.Q.] (Read at a meeting of the Society on 24 February 1966.) PracticaUy the only guide received by the Colonial Agent- General in enabUng him to carry out his duties in accordance with Government policy were the informal interviews and discussions he would have with the Premier, Treasurer, and other Cabinet Ministers before his departure for England. He would receive with every mail steamer voluminous correspon­ dence detaUing specific items of Colonial business, contracts, etc., which he was required to attend to. Where there was understanding and confidence between the Agent-General and his superiors in the Colonial Secretary's office this loose arrangement worked reasonably well, but problems were created and friction arose where the Agent-General's title to office was couched in vague and indefinite terms. That unfortunate situation arose early in the history of the Agent-Generalship in Queensland. Both Henry Jordan, Queensland's first Agent-General, and his successor, John Douglas, clashed with the Colonial Secretary and Government of the day, and in each instance much controversial corres­ pondence resulted regarding the interpretation and scope of their duties. Both men were sternly rebuked for allegedly exceeding their authority. A study of the relevant correspon­ dence reveals a censorious, pettifogging, and unreasonable attitude by the respective Colonial Secretaries, Herbert, Mac­ kenzie, and Palmer, and an inability to understand and appre­ ciate the problems which faced the Agent-General in London, especiaUy in connection with emigration.

  • Ad Hoc Diplomats
    SCOVILLE IN PRINTER FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 1/17/2019 5:24 PM AD HOC DIPLOMATS RYAN M. SCOVILLE† ABSTRACT Article II of the Constitution grants the president power to appoint “Ambassadors” and “other public Ministers” with the advice and consent of the Senate. By all accounts, this language requires Senate confirmation for the appointment of resident ambassadors and other diplomats of similar rank and tenure. Yet these are hardly the only agents of U.S. foreign relations. Ad hoc diplomats—individuals chosen exclusively by the president to complete limited and temporary assignments—play a comparably significant role in addressing international crises, negotiating treaties, and otherwise executing foreign policy. This Article critically examines the appointments process for such irregular agents. An orthodox view holds it permissible for the president to dispatch any ad hoc diplomat without Senate confirmation, but this view does not accord with the original meaning of Article II. Scrutinizing text and an extensive collection of original historical sources, I show that, under a formalist reading of the Constitution, the appointment of most ad hoc diplomats requires the advice and consent of the Senate because these agents are typically “public Ministers” and “Officers of the United States” under the Appointments Clause. The analysis makes several contributions. First, it provides the first thorough account of the original meaning of “public Ministers”—a term that appears several times in the Constitution but lacks precise contours in contemporary scholarship and practice. Second, for formalists, the analysis reorients longstanding debates about the process of treaty-making and empowers the Senate to exert greater influence over a wide variety of presidential initiatives, including communications with North Korea, the renegotiation of trade agreements, the campaign to defeat ISIS, and the stabilization of Ukraine, all of which have relied on the work of ad hoc diplomats.

  • Department of Campus Ministry Annual Report 2014-2015
    DEPARTMENT OF CAMPUS MINISTRY ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 Respectfully submitted by: John B. Scarano, director of Campus Ministry Campus Ministry Philosophy The Department of Campus Ministry encourages students, faculty, and staff of JCU to integrate personal faith into the academic and social environment of the university. We value the university’s commitment to academic pursuits, and welcome the opportunities we have to bring a Catholic and Ignatian faith perspective to bear on issues and trends that may surface in various disciplines and in a variety of social milieus. We have identified the following statements as our purpose: We embrace the Jesuit, Catholic intellectual tradition as an indispensable partner in the search for truth and wisdom. We promote the service of faith and the promotion of justice through education, advocacy, service and reflection; We foster the development of whole persons who become servant leaders in their local and global faith communities. We provide an open, caring, hospitable and collaborative atmosphere that supports the mission of the University. We establish a sense of community through vibrant worship, retreats, small faith communities, and immersion experiences. We recognize Eucharist as our primary liturgical experience, while also celebrating a diversity of faith and spiritual perspectives that seeks both wisdom and a fuller spiritual life. Departmental Goals: In solidarity with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, we aspire to instill a basic knowledge and understanding of the six aspects of Campus Ministry outlined in the 1985 US Bishop’s Pastoral Letter “Empowered By the Spirit: Campus Ministry Faces the Future.” The six aspects are: Forming the Faith Community Facilitating Personal Development Appropriating the Faith Educating for Justice Forming the Christian Conscience Developing Leaders for the Future In light of these aspects, our departmental goals are as follows: 1.
