ИМУНИТЕТИ И ПРИВИЛЕГИЈЕ ДИПЛОМАТСКИХ ПРЕДСТАВНИКА
IMMUNITY AND PRIVILEGES OF DIPLOMATIC REPRESENTATIVES

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the problem regarding immunity and privileges of the diplomatic representatives and diplomatic missions within international law. The Vienna convention on diplomatic relations from 1961 codified the international law in the field of immunity and privileges of diplomatic representatives that until then had been regulated as customary law. In order of easier performance of diplomatic function in the receiving state, the Convention sets up a strong framework of immunities and privileges that the mission exercises. The rights have been classified as rights regarding the objects and the archives of the mission (ratione materiae); facilitations in the work of the mission, freedom of movement and comunication; and personal immunity (ratione persone). Concentrating on the rules regulated by Convention, the paper shows that the main problem is the question regarding the theoretical and practical identification of usefulness of the rules in such a big exstent nowdays.
