Notes
1. In The Uncertain Crusade, Muravchik praises the Final Act for erecting “an effective framework for bringing attention to human rights abuses,” even if it lacked the crucial power of enforcement to elevate its status to the level of a formal treaty (83).
2. Two major mid-century diplomats (one Russian, the other an American) dilate upon the envoy’s duty. As Maisky explains in The Maisky Diaries: “The most important and substantive element in the work of every ambassador is the actual contact he has with people. It is not sufficient to read the newspapers—that can be done in Moscow” (268). What Maisky means by local “contacts,” Kennan means by “intimacies,” in The Kennan Diaries: “For a country actively participating in the fray of European politics, it is valuable to have diplomats whose intimacies are such that they can get the low-down at any given moment on just what is taking place in the town” (61).
3. See Habermas, “An Interview with Juergen Habermas,” 165, 171, 171.
4. See Forsythe, Human Rights in International Relations, 125.
5. See Finnemore and Sikkink, “International Norm Dynamics and Political Change,” 892.
6. See Wendt, Social Theory of International Politics, 82.
