Overview

Secessionist movements are a fact of life and sometimes the interplay of demands becomes mutually exclusive and result in outbreaks of violence or indeed outright warfare. The contributors to this book provide a comparative survey of recent attempts at secession from across Europe and Asia and assesses the responses of the respective host governments. This volume will be an invaluable resource for those who wish to understand the dynamics of secessionist movements and as such will appeal to students and scholars of Asian and European politics, comparative politics, international relations and conflict studies. It will also be helpful to practioners and policy-makers who wish to understand and contribute to the resolution of such conflicts.
