Claims to selfdetermination are rife in world politics today. They range from Scottish and Catalonian campaigns for independence to calls for the devolution of power to regions and cities. But is selfdetermination meaningful or desirable in the twentyfirst century, or merely a dangerous illusion?In this book, David Miller mounts a powerful defence of political selfdetermination. He explains why it is valuable and argues that geographic proximity alone is not enough for groups to have the capacity for selfdetermination: group members must also identify with each other. He explores the different political forms that selfdetermination can take, and he suggests some realistic constraints on how it can be achieved, concluding that people exercising their collective agency is still both feasible and important.Anyone concerned by the theoretical issues raised by the various secessionist and nationalist movements around the world should read this book.
