ABSTRACT Scholarly analysis of John Diefenbaker’s government between 1957 and 1963 has focused heavily on Diefenbaker’s influence in the conduct of Canadian foreign policy. From the “renegade in power” to the “rogue Tory”, Diefenbaker frequently receives the primary credit or blame for determining Canada’s place in the wider world. This traditional evaluation, however, ignores the broad latitude often given to senior Canadian diplomats. Diefenbaker’s high commissioner to Britain, George Drew, played a particularly important role in shaping Anglo-Canadian relations. Building on his senior status within Progressive Conservative ranks, Drew proved resolute and unorthodox in advancing Canadian interests. A detailed case study of Drew’s efforts to secure a comprehensive international agreement on the law of the sea demonstrates his impact on Canadian foreign policy. Drew headed the Canadian delegation to two United Nations law of the sea conferences in 1958 and 1960 and vigorously pursued an international agreement delineating the width of the territorial sea eventually brokered after the Diefenbaker government left office in 1963.

乔治·德鲁，海洋法和迪芬贝克政府，1957-1963

摘要 对约翰·迪芬贝克 (John Diefenbaker) 1957 年至 1963 年政府的学术分析主要集中在迪芬贝克 (Diefenbaker) 在执行加拿大外交政策方面的影响。从“掌权的叛徒”到“流氓保守党”，迪芬贝克经常因决定加拿大在更广阔世界的地位而受到主要的赞扬或指责。然而，这种传统的评估忽略了通常给予加拿大高级外交官的广泛自由。迪芬贝克的驻英国高级专员乔治德鲁在塑造英加关系方面发挥了特别重要的作用。基于他在进步保守党中的高级地位，德鲁在推进加拿大利益方面被证明是坚定的和非正统的。德鲁为达成全面的国际海洋法协议所做努力的详细案例研究表明了他对加拿大外交政策的影响。1958 年和 1960 年，德鲁率领加拿大代表团参加了两次联合国海洋法会议，并积极寻求一项划定领海宽度的国际协议，最终在迪芬贝克政府于 1963 年卸任后达成。
