The Right to Self-Determination Under International Law: 'Selfistans', Secession, and the Rule of the Great Powers

Milena Sterio · Routledge (2013)

tlte-cite:sterio-routledge-sd

Editorial gloss

Sterio's monograph develops the 'great powers' theory of self-determination: recognition follows great-power alignment more than doctrinal entitlement. For the Eelam frame the analysis is the realist constraint on any remedial-secession argument — doctrine alone, even if satisfied, does not produce recognition.
