This revised and expanded edition analyses the factors conducive to
holding independence and secession referendums, to winning these
votes and to their status in domestic and international law. Taking
into account the votes in Catalonia and Scotland, the book shows
that votes on secession and independence are not a passing
phenomenon but an important part of international politics. The
book includes an overview of the history of referendums on
independence and a summary of the legal issues involved in doing
so, as well as a chapter on referendums in unrecognised states and
case study chapters exploring referendums in Kosovo, Cyprus,
Kurdistan and Somaliland amongst others. By considering the ethical
arguments for secession and recognition, the legal norms governing
the process, and the positive and political science theory of when
would-be states succeed in becoming recognized by the international
community, it shows the role of referendums in the process of
establishing new states, and, as a corollary, their role (if any)
winning international recognition for these states. This book will
be of interest to all scholars and students of political science,
law and even philosophy.
