Identity, Self-Determination and Secession - Paperback

by Igor Primoratz (Editor), Aleksander Pavkovic (Editor)

Engaging with a range of interconnected and highly topical issues of identity, self-determination and secession, this book examines the import and implications of 'identity claims', and looks into 'identity politics' motivated by such claims, which is becoming ever more salient in democratic and culturally and ethnically heterogeneous states.
