Description: The consul became a linchpin of Western expansion in the nineteenth century. Although the history of consular services was examined for certain countries and a number of individual positions, a comparative study about the consular institution in the 19th century does not exist so far. This volume, containing 38 articels on the consular services of 23 countries, makes an attempt to compare the different acitivies all over the world regarding structures, the evolution of networks, careers and salaries of the consuls, their relationships with the guardian organizations and the result of their work.
