THE HISTORY OF APPOINTMENT PROCESS OF AMERICAN AMBASSADORS AND ITS COMPARISON WITH THE APPOINTMENT PROCESS OF THE UK AMBASSADORS
Abstract
Although, over the years, main preoccupation of American diplomats has been the same, which is protection and promotion of their country‟s interest, there are clear distinctions between today‟s diplomats and that of the early years‟ diplomats in terms of background, preparation and professionalism. As the US has grown from a colony to becoming the world's superpower, the missions, the way of appointment and the number of diplomats has dramatically changed not only in terms of means and procedure but also form as well. As for the United Kingdom (the UK) ambassadors, the appointment process of ambassadors in the UK is less public. Therefore, except for certain procedures, the details of the appointment process are not known. However, the way of appointment in the UK has remained almost the same thoroughout the history.
