The Emergence of a Democratic Right to Self-determination in Europe by Daniel Turp PDF Summary

Book Description: This book endeavours to study the right to self-determination of peoples -- a fundamental collective right. More than ever before, it is the subject of heated debate. The Scottish referendum on September 18th, 2014, and the Catalan plebiscitary election on September 27th, 2015, exemplify the exercise of this right. Yet, the United Kingdom and Spain had two very different ways of dealing with the claim of one of its nations to freely decide their political status. The first has recognized the right to choose for Scots and the second has been attempting to thwart such a right for the Catalans. This book goes beyond Catalonia and Scotland and presents the cases of 22 nations, which claim a right to self- determination. These case studies show a clear evolution towards a democratic right to self-determination, but they also reveal a resistance in some countries to the idea that peoples should be able to determine their path towards autonomy or greater autonomy, or to independence and with ties to the European Union.
