Togo and Mali 1959-1961
John Gunther Dean’s introductory comments to the 5 files on Togo and Mali and complete inventory of the individual folders [7 pages] donated to the National Archives of the USA [The Jimmy Carter Library in Atlanta, Georgia]. [1959 – 1961]. 1 Inventory and comments on J.G.Dean’s files on Opening U.S. diplomatic missions in West Africa after independence Togo and Mali 1959 – 1961 Introduction to the files entitled “Opening U.S. diplomatic missions in West Africa after independence: 1959 – 1961” In the year 1960 independence came to many parts of West Africa. It was an exciting time as colonies and trust territories received their independence. Perhaps Washington’s primary concern was that the newly independent countries would not turn to the Soviet Union or Communist China as models for development. Sekou Touré of Guinea had opted for that path. As a young Foreign Service Officer, John Gunther Dean participated in establishing an American presence in two countries acceding to independence: Togo and Mali. In order to fully understand what happened and who did what to whom, it is useful to read first J.G.D.’s Oral History on his experiences in West Africa. [Item 1 of this chapter] In Togo, J.G.D. not only opened the post, but was also asked to pinch hit as Diplomatic Advisor for the new President of Togo, Sylvanus Olympio. In Mali, J.G.D. was the first foreign representative and was helpful to Mali’s march toward modernization and democracy. More than 40 years later U.S. - Malian relations are still excellent.

DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITIES ACT, 1952 DIPLOMATIC IMMUNITIES ACT 1952 (COMMONWEALTH) The Commonwealth Diplomatic Immunities Act of 1952 accords to chief representatives (generally called High Commissioners) accredited by the Govern- ments of member States of the British Commonwealth to the Queen in Australia, the same immunity from suit and legal process in the Australian courts as is afforded to envoys of foreign States in accordance with international law. Its key provision is s. 4, which provides that a chief representative is entitled to the immunity from suit and legal process, and to the inviolability of residence, official premises and official archives, to which he would be entitled if he were an envoy? In reviewing the Act, it must be remembered that an envoy (Ambassador or Minister Plenipotentiary) is the personal representative of the head of his State; and to him flow, by international law, courtesies of treatment, including jurisdictional immunities, by reason of his capacity and recognition as head-of- State representative. A High Commissioner, on the other hand, is the official representative of his Government, not appointed by and not representing the head of State. He is without recognition in international law. Hence the need for specific legislation when it was decided to give High Commissioners immuni- ties which had formerly attached only to the special superior status of Ambassador or Minister representing the head of a State. The evolution of the office of High Commissioner has been entirely different to that of envoys of foreign States and to a great extent reflects the evolution of the Commonwealth itself from incipient Colonial/Dominion formation.

Protocol Handbook 2018
PROTOCOL HANDBOOK PROTOCOL DIVISION MINISTRY OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS GOVERNMENT OF INDIA PREFACE It gives me immense pleasure in presenting this edition of the Protocol Handbook. I would like to give credit to my predecessor Shri Sanjay Verma, in whose tenure compilation of this edition was almost completed. The last edition of the Protocol Handbook was published in 2006. Since then, some policy and procedural changes have taken place in respect of privileges, immunities and facilities extended to Diplomatic Missions/Consular Posts and UN/Other International Organizations [Foreign Representations (FRs)] in India. Protocol Division has also taken several steps to simplify and streamline procedures for interaction between FRs and Ministry of External Affairs. Application forms for all services have been placed at the Website of the Ministry under URL <http://meaprotocol.nic.in>. This edition of the Protocol Handbook is an effort to incorporate consequent changes in rules, regulations and guidelines on Protocol issues and make them user-friendly with ample cross referencing and links to relevant Websites. A special feature of the Handbook is addition of subject ‘Goods & Service Tax’ (GST) under Chapter XVI and change of nomenclature of Chapter XIX from ‘Foreign Cultural Centres and Assistance to Indian Cultural/Friendship Societies’ to ‘Guidelines for Establishment and Functioning of Foreign Cultural Centres’. In addition, new Chapters XXXIV to XXXVII have been incorporated for better clarity on the respective subjects. The contents of the Handbook are available at the Website of the Ministry under URL <http://meaprotocol. nic.in>. The Protocol Handbook should address, in a large measure, the most frequently asked questions.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS the Period of Study for the Ph.D Was Marred By
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The period of study for the Ph.D was marred by the untimely and tragic deaths of my M.Phil supervisor, Esmonde Robertson and Ph.D. supervisor, Dr. Roger Bullen, of the Department of International History at the London School of Economics. I am eternally grateful for their personal kindness, encouragement and selfless assistance. To the memory of both scholars I humbly dedicate the thesis. My gratitude to Jenny for her saintly patience in allowing me the indulgence to research and write the thesis, to James for his grammatical corrections, to Alex for collating the proofs and to Siobhan for allowing me the use of the word processor.. I am especially grateful to Dr. Michael Dockrill, Department of War Studies, Kings College, London, who kindly agreed to take over the supervision of the final stages of the thesis. I am grateful to S.B. Crooks, R.Krishna, R.James , R. Wall and all the staff of the External Studies division of London University for their helpful assistance over the years. My thanks to former Minister of Health in the coalition government, 1948-51, Dr. Noel Browne whose criticisms of my initial acceptance that there was a "general policy" of the Irish government to repeal the External Relations Act, prompted a more thorough investigation of the subject. For that enlightenment, kindness and hospitality ,1 thank Noel and his wife Phyllis. To the late Sean Mac Bride, for his courtesy and hospitality. His recollections proved invaluable; his charismatic personality is an indelible memory. To Professor Patrick Lynch for his courtesy and unending patience in answering questions about John Costello's trip to Canada.
