This book presents an analytical framework which assesses how
'land-for-peace' agreements can be achieved in the context of
territorial conflicts between de facto states and their respective
parent states. The volume examines geographic solutions to
resolving ongoing conflicts that stand between the principle of
self-determination (prompted by de facto states) and the principle
of territorial integrity (prompted by parent states). The authors
investigate the conditions under which territorial adjustments can
bring about a possibility for peace between de facto states and
their parent states. It does so by interrogating the possibility of
land-for-peace agreements in four de facto state–parent state
pairs, namely Kosovo–Serbia, Nagorno–Karabakh–Azerbaijan,
Northern Cyprus–Republic of Cyprus, and Abkhazia–Georgia. The
book suggests that the value that parties put on land to be
exchanged and peace to be achieved stand at odds for land-for-peace
agreements to materialise. The book brings theoretical and
empirical insights that open several avenues for discussions on the
conservative stance that the international community has held on
territorial changes in the post-1945 international order. This book
will be of much interest to students of statebuilding, state
formation, secessionism, political geography, and international
relations.
