The concepts of statehood and self-determination provide the
normative structure on which the international legal order is
ultimately premised. As a system of law founded upon the issue of
territorial control, ascertaining and determining which entities
are entitled to the privileges of statehood continues to be one of
the most difficult and complex issues. Moreover, although the
process of decolonisation is almost complete, the principle of
self-determination has raised new challenges for the metropolitan
territories of established states, including the extent to which
'internal' self-determination guarantees additional rights for
minority and other groups. As the controversies surrounding
remedial secession have revealed, the territorial integrity of a
state can be questioned if there are serious and persistent
breaches of a people's human rights. This volume brings together
such debates to reflect further on the current state of
international law regarding these fundamental issues.
