本文以荷兰大西洋学家恩斯特·范德贝格尔（Ernst van der Beugel, 1918-2004）为例，展示了他在1959年离开荷兰外交部后，如何在冷战时期的跨大西洋关系中扮演着重要角色。更具体地说，这篇文章集中于恩斯特·范德贝格尔在1959年之后的“外交角色”的延续，通过展示他如何能够以私人身份继续许多外交性质的活动，这些活动需要什么，他为什么选择从事这些活动，以及他的非官方努力如何与正式的跨大西洋外交联系起来。此外，它还涉及到恩斯特·范德贝格尔作为“非官方外交官”代表的是谁或什么问题。
This article focuses on the Dutch Atlanticist Ernst van der Beugel (1918–2004) as an ‘unofficial diplomat’ by demonstrating how he remained a prominent actor in Cold War transatlantic relations after he had left the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1959. More specifically this article concentrates on the continuation of Ernst van der Beugel’s ‘diplomatic role’ after 1959 by showing how he was able to continue many activities that were diplomatic in nature in a private capacity, what these activities entailed, why he chose to pursue them and how his unofficial endeavors related to formal transatlantic diplomacy. In addition, it touches upon the question who or what Ernst van der Beugel represented as an ‘unofficial diplomat’.
