The boundaries between secessionism and separatism are often
blurred, and in many cases study of secessionism encompasses that
of separatism and vice versa. Recognising this inherent
relationship, this book provides a comparative survey of recent
attempts at secession and separatist movements from across Europe
and Asia, and assesses the responses of the respective host
governments. The essays address two main questions which arise from
the relationship between state governments and secessionist
movements: first, how secessionist or separatist movements gather
support and mobilize their target populations and second, how
central political authorities respond to the challenges that
secessionist or separatist movements pose to their capacity to
control the country. With political analysis of recent cases
ranging from the Balkans, the USSR, the UK and the Basque Country,
to Sri Lanka, Burma, China, Tibet and Taiwan, the authors identify
both similarities and differences in the processes and outcomes of
secessionist and separatist movements across the two distinct
regions. This volume will be an invaluable resource for those who
wish to understand the dynamics of secessionist movements and as
such will appeal to students and scholars of Asian and European
politics, comparative politics, international relations and
conflict studies. It will also be helpful to practitioners and
policy-makers who wish to understand and contribute to the
resolution of such conflicts.
