Focusing especially on the era since the Cold War, political scientists, other scholars, and government officials examine both empirically and conceptually the causes and impacts of people striving for self-determination and autonomy. They consider the legal, political-administrative, ethnic-cultural, economic, and strategic dimensions; and try to consider examples from all major regions. Annotation c.

Fifteen chapters cover topics including the Liechtenstein Draft Convention on Self-Determination Through Self-Administration; the UN and national self-determination; Mayan self-determination multicultural models and educational choice for Guatemala; self-determination and self-administration in the former Soviet Union; self-determination and nation-building in post-Cold War Africa; and the rise and decline of self-determination movements in India.
