Secession and state creation : what everyone needs to know / James Ker-Lindsay and Mikulas Fabry

Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:01:01 +0900

James Ker-Lindsay and Mikulas Fabry. Secession and state creation : what everyone needs to know. Oxford University Press, [2023], What everyone needs to know. ISBN:9780190494056; 0190494050; 9780190494049; 0190494042
"This book explores the way in which new states emerge in the modern international system. While the subject of secession and state creation has rarely been so newsworthy - especially in light of the 2022 war in Ukraine and other conflicts in the international system - recent events in places such as Kosovo, Catalonia and Kurdistan have highlighted just how difficult it is to create a new country in the modern international system. Although there are now 193 members of the United Nations, just ten states have joined the organisation in the past quarter century. This leads to the obvious question: why is it so hard for territories to gain independence? Using a concise question and answer format, this book explains the evolution of international thinking on secession and state creation and clearly explains the key concepts underpinning the political and legal debates on statehood. To illustrate the points, it draws on many of the most important independence movements over the past two hundred years. It then considers the key attributes of statehood. For example, what institutions does a state need? Does it have to have its own currency and armed forces? It also explains how a new state becomes a part of the wider international system. Finally, it considers whether the international community will rethink its long-standing opposition to secession and open the way for a new era of state creation"--

Catalonia, Scotland and the EU : visions of independence and integration / Niklas Bremberg and Richard Gillespie

Fri, 09 Sep 2022 20:48:22 +0900

Niklas Bremberg and Richard Gillespie. Catalonia, Scotland and the EU : visions of independence and integration. Routledge; Routledge, 2022; ©2022, Europa regional perspectives; Routledge focus. ISBN:9780367653439; 0367653435; 9781032211350
The electoral success of secessionist parties in Catalonia and Scotland over the last decade, together with Brexit and the support for Eurosceptic parties in many EU member states, have prompted a rethink of many taken-for-granted notions about politics in Spain, the UK and the EU. Secessionist parties in Catalonia and Scotland often combine calls for independence with support for the EU, but independence for Catalonia might entail the loss of EU membership. In the UK, Scotland voted for the UK to remain in the EU, yet it was forced to leave the Union along with the rest of the country: what effect has Brexit had on Scottish independence claims? Through comparing Catalonia and Scotland, this short volume aims to contribute to debates on, and advance knowledge of, visions of independence and integration, how they interrelate in Europe⁰́₉s emergent political order, and what they entail for European integration and democracy in the EU

Hybrid sovereignty in world politics / Swati Srivastava

Tue, 20 Jun 2023 00:13:18 +0900

Swati Srivastava. Hybrid sovereignty in world politics. Cambridge University Press; Cambridge University Press, 2022; ©2022, Cambridge studies in international relations ; 161. ISBN:9781009204507; 1009204505
"The global sovereign order is constructed from relations of public/private hybridity where power flows without regard to public and private boundaries. In hybrid sovereignty, the lived realities of performing sovereign competence through contractors, lobbyists, and INGOs are in tension with idealized imperatives of an indivisibly public sovereign authority. Public/private hybridity implicates core questions of sovereignty and responsibility for International Relations. The book addresses these questions while showing that public/private hybridity takes different forms of contractual, institutional, and shadow hybridity based on the formalization and publicization of relations. Using multi-sited original archival research, the study examines varieties of public/private hybridity in some of the most profound world historical moments: the spread of the British empire, the founding of America, the establishment of free trade, the realization of global human rights, and the wars of the twenty-first century. In order to sustain meaningful dialogues about the future of global power and authority, it is crucial that we begin to reflect on Hybrid Sovereignty in World Politics"--

De facto state identity and international legitimation / Sebastian Klich

Introduction -- De Facto States and the International System -- International Legitimacy and the Normative Standing of De Facto States -- The Nagorno Karabakh Republic -- The Republic of Somaliland -- The Kurdistan Region of Iraq -- Conclusion; "Examining the state identity formation and international legitimation of de facto states, this book provides a deeper understanding of the relationship between de facto states, the international state system and international society. The book integrates International Relations theories to construct a framework of normative standing for de facto states, to better understand the social system they inhabit and the stasis in their relationship with international society, demonstrated through detailed case study analysis of Nagorno Karabakh, Somaliland and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Klich appraises the recognition narrative of de facto states in order to analyse their state identities, and constructs a framework for normative standing in an original synthesis of English School, constructivism and legitimacy scholarship. The explanatory utility of that framework is then applied and analysed through detailed fieldwork conducted across an original set of case studies - Nagorno Karabakh, Somaliland, and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq - that have varying degrees of international engagement and parent state relationships"

Contesting sovereignty : power and practice in Africa and Southeast Asia / Joel Ng

Wed, 27 Apr 2022 20:12:38 +0900

Joel Ng. Contesting sovereignty : power and practice in Africa and Southeast Asia. Cambridge University Press, 2021; ©2021. ISBN:9781108490610; 1108490611
"Sovereignty is a foundational idea upon which regional organization of nations is built, yet its demise has often been predicted. Regionalism, which commits states to common frameworks such as rules and norms, tests sovereignty as states relinquish some sovereign power to achieve other goals such as security, growth, or liberalization. This book examines the practice of normative contestation over sovereignty in two regional organizations of Africa and Asia - the AU and ASEAN. A structured comparison of three case studies from each organization determines whether a norm challenging sovereignty was accepted, rejected, or qualified. Ng has carried out interviews about, and detailed analysis of, these six cases that occurred at formative moments of norm-setting and that each had very different outcomes. This study contributes to the understanding of norms contestation in the field of international relations and offers new insights on how the AU and ASEAN are constituted"--

Sovereignty as symbolic form / Jens Bartelson.

Jens Bartelson.. Sovereignty as symbolic form. First edition., Routledge, 2014., Critical issues in global politics ; 6. ISBN:9780415446822; 9780415446839; 9781315774909
"This book is a critical inquiry into the meaning and function of sovereignty in the present and argues that the meaning and functions performed by this concept have changed significantly during the past decades, with profound implications for the ontological status of the state and the modus operandi of the international system as a whole. Although we have grown accustomed to regard sovereignty both as a defining characteristic of the modern state and a constitutive principle of the international system, this book argues that recent changes indicate that sovereignty has been turned into a grant contingent upon its responsible exercise in accordance with the norms and values of an imagined international community. This book has grown out the dissatisfaction with the author's previous work on sovereignty and the state, and argues that a new concept of sovereignty is needed today in order to clarify the logic of its current usage in theory and practice alike and its connection to broader concerns of social ontology: what kind of world do we inhabit, and of what kind of entities is this world composed? This book will be of interest to students of International Relations, Critical Security and International Politics"--

Secessionist movements and ethnic conflict : debate-framing and rhetoric in independence campaigns / Beáta Huszka.

Thu, 11 Mar 2021 18:31:43 +0900

Beáta Huszka.. Secessionist movements and ethnic conflict : debate-framing and rhetoric in independence campaigns. Routledge; Routledge, 2014., Routledge studies in nationalism and ethnicity. ISBN:9780415519243; 0415519241
"This book analyses how national independence movements' rhetoric can inflame or dampen ethnic violence. It examines the extent to the power of words matters when a region tries to break away to become a nation state. Using discourse analysis, this book examines how the process of secession affects internal ethnic relations and analyses how politicians interpret events and present arguments with the intention to mobilize their constituencies for independence. With in-depth case studies on the Slovenian, the Croatian and the Montenegrin independence movements, and by looking at cases from Indonesia and Spain, the author investigates how rhetoric affect internal ethnic relations during secession and how events and debate shape each other. The author demonstrates how in some cases of self-determination elites push for a higher level of sovereignty in the name of economic advancement, whereas in other cases, self-determination movements refer to ethnic identity and human rights issues. Explaining how and why certain discourses dominate some independence movements and not others, Secessionist Movements and Ethnic Conflict will be of interest to students and scholars of politics, history, nationalism, ethnic conflict and discourse analysis"--

Sovereignty and liberty : a study of the foundations of power / Amnon Lev.

Thu, 11 Sep 2014 23:11:37 +0900

Amnon Lev.. Sovereignty and liberty : a study of the foundations of power. Routledge, 2014., A GlassHouse book. ISBN:9780415706872
"Sovereignty and Liberty: The Foundations of Power is a study of the place of law in the idea of liberty. It addresses the reasons why law lies at the heart of a democratic model of government in order to consider how shifts in the conception of human existence have led to a crisis of our faith in laws capacity to guarantee liberty. Legal theorists and political scientists almost invariably consider the question of liberty as a matter of its more or less successful translation into politico-legal order, whether it be in terms of rational choice, ideological commitment or an idea of republican government. But, in so doing, they usually fail to consider the subtle mechanisms by which subjection to law informs the articulation of liberty. Sovereignty and Liberty engages this foundational question of public law and constitutional order, in order to consider the dramatic changes to the state-bound orders of Western societies that have occurred during the 20th century; especially as they relate to our disenchantment with sovereign power and the forms of community that have grown up around it. "--; "Sovereignty and Liberty: A Study of the Foundations of Power studies the place of law in the idea of liberty. Legal theorists and political scientists almost invariably consider the question of liberty as a matter of its more or less successful translation into politico-legal order, but in so doing they usually fail to consider the subtle mechanisms by which subjection to law informs the articulation of liberty. This book addresses the reasons why law lies at the heart of a democratic model of government in order to consider how shifts in the conception of human existence have led to a crisis of our faith in law's capacity to guarantee liberty. The book introduces two key concepts to explain the exercise of power: the idea of a faith in sovereignty and the idea of the survival society that has risen in the wake of the demise of sovereignty. Drawing on the work of key names in the study of sovereignty, power and liberty, including Thomas Hobbes, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Hans Kelsen and Carl Schmitt, this book investigates the modern attachment to sovereignty, and how subjection to it became a source of existential meaning. Offering controversial new insights into the implication of liberalism in sovereign power and the dissociation of sovereignty, this book will appeal to students and academics in law, politics, and across the social sciences"--
