This book offers a detailed account of the legal issues concerning
the British Indian Ocean Territory (Chagos Islands) by leading
experts in the field. It examines the broader significance of the
ongoing Bancoult litigation in the UK Courts, the Chagos Islanders'
petition to the European Court of Human Rights and Mauritius'
successful challenge, under the UN Convention of the Law of the
Sea, to the UK government's creation of a Marine Protected Area
around the Chagos Archipelago. This book, produced in response to
the 50th anniversary of the BIOT's founding, also assesses the
impact of the decisions taken in respect of the Territory against a
wider background of decolonization while addressing important
questions about the lawfulness of maintaining Overseas Territories
in the post-colonial era.The chapter 'Anachronistic As Colonial
Remnants May Be...' - Locating the Rights of the Chagos Islanders
As A Case Study of the Operation of Human Rights Law in Colonial
Territories is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license via
