This
home page is intended as a vanity publication wall for various
bits and pieces that I've written over the years, and may still
be of wider interest to some. They were written for particular
circumstances, of which I've left in the traces. Many of the
pieces are tangentially work product from my years at the
Council of Europe, but I mostly wrote them in my spare time, and
in my opinion there's nothing that breaches any duty of
confidence.
The
page has little family stuff – except for this
-, and I don't update it much.
