The 2019 Chagos Advisory Opinion of the International Court of
Justice is a decision of profound legal and political significance.
Presented with a rare opportunity to pronounce on the right to
self-determination and the rules governing decolonization, the ICJ
responded with remarkable directness. The contributions to this
book examine the Court's reasoning, the importance of the decision
for the international system, and its consequences for the
situation in the Chagos Archipelago in particular. Apart from
bringing the Chagossians closer to the prospect of returning to the
islands from which they were covertly expelled half a century ago,
the decision and its political context may be understood as part of
a broader shift in North/South relations, in which formerly
dominant powers like the UK must come to terms with their waning
influence on the world stage, and in which voices from former
colonies are increasingly shaping the institutional and normative
landscape.
