摘要
This article examines the microgeography of diplomacy, particularly its localized embodiment in a corps diplomatique and international governmental organizations. Drawing on the case of The Hague, we map embassies and consider the locations of organizations engaged with interstate and transnational relations. The article raises questions about diplomatic form and function, whereby urban, economic, and political geographies intersect around issues of diplomacy, representation, and security. Our case study has implications for the study of other diplomatic centers and poses research questions about diplomacy as a spatial practice pertaining to diplomatic buildings, diplomatic clusters, para-diplomacy, and securitization. ??????????,????????????????????????????????,????????,????????????????????????????????????,??????????,???????????????????????,??????????????,???????????????????????,???????????????? Este articulo se refiere a la microgeografia de la diplomacia, en particular a su localizada materializacion en un cuerpo diplomatico y en las organizaciones gubernamentales internacionales. A partir del caso de La Haya, mapeamos las embajadas y consideramos las localizaciones de organismos comprometidos en relaciones interestatales y transnacionales. El articulo formula interrogantes acerca de la forma y funcion diplomaticas, a traves de lo cual las geografias urbana, economica y politica se intersectan alrededor de asuntos de diplomacia, representacion y seguridad. Nuestro caso de interes tiene implicaciones para el estudio de otros centros diplomaticos y plantea preguntas de investigacion concernientes a la diplomacia como practica espacial relacionada con edificios diplomaticos, agrupamientos diplomaticos, paradiplomacia, y seguridizacion.
