This book offers a comprehensive, highly informative and
interdisciplinary study on territorial integrity and the challenges
globalization, self-determination and external interventions
present. This study aims at not only to fill an epistemological gap
in this regard, but also answer the question of whether
International Law is adequately equipped to help states address
these challenges. The author argues that the biggest threat that
many states are confronted with today is their disintegration
rather than their obsolescence, and that International Law has not
often been able to prevent that eventuality. In fact, states, when
they were not destroyed by war, managed to survive, thanks to the
flexibility of territoriality, i.e. their ability to adjust to
difficult situations as they arose. It is this understanding of
adaptation that urges an increasing number of states today to
revive territorial autonomy and restore an original understanding
of self-determination in which democracy is a pivotal factor in
establishing congruence between the states and their nations. While
this move is endorsed by International Law, it is not the case for
globalization; for their own sake, proponents of globalization
should recognize that the states are irreplaceable as long as they
remain the sole providers of protection for their peoples.
