Rezensionen

"In a globalised world, in which foreign citizens are increasingly subject to criminal proceedings in other states and are demanding ever greater levels of protection by their national state, this book offers an indispensable and up to date compendium on the law and practice of consular access." Dr Tim Stephens, University of Sydney, Australia

"In just a few years, the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations has gone from being almost entirely unknown to being the subject of complicated and significant litigation around the world.This book describes the developments that have taken place, collects the most important materials (many of which are hard to find), and offers analysis to guide all those attempting to untangle the VCCR." John Cary Sims, Professor of Law, University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law Sacramento, California, USA
