In light of the considerable growth in persons having diplomatic status and the subsequent increase in attacks on diplomatic personnel this book provides an in-depth examination of the legal and non-legal regimes directed towards the protection of diplomatic personnel around the world. It focuses in particular on recent developments in international law relating to the prevention of terrorism and the development of international criminal law.
