We consider the problem of quantizing scalar fields propagating in anti-de Sitter space-time. This space-time is static but not globally hyperbolic and hence the usual quantization procedures are inapplicable. Nevertheless, we show that a consistent quantization scheme can be devised by carefully controlling information entering and leaving the space-time through its timelike spatial infinity.
