Territory continues to be an essential part of modern political
discussion, evidenced in the recent decentralization of state
structures and rise of sub-state nationalist and regionalist
parties. With extensive empirical evidence alongside contemporary
theory, this multidisciplinary Handbook makes the case for an
outright rejection of state-centric views on territorial politics.
Original research by political scientists, geographers,
sociologists, lawyers, historians and public policy specialists
demonstrates how territory continues to have an impact across
institutional and political structures, as well as on culture,
identity and citizenship. Over four sections, contributions cover
institutions and ideas; elections and political parties; public
policy concerns; and geographical perspectives, including conflict
resolution and gendered approaches to territorial politics. With
perspectives from European, North American, South Asian, Middle
Eastern and Australasian case studies, Klaus Detterbeck and Eve
Hepburn provide a state-of-the-art international Handbook of
Territorial Politics. Incorporating public policy, comparative
politics, multilevel governance and political geography, this
Handbook provides scholars and students with a compelling
compendium on territorial politics that will prove invaluable.
