Críticas

Overall, the book provides useful theoretical and practical insights on autonomy by departing from some traditional assumptions based on idealogical and rigid understandings of the relationship between diversity and territory. The editors and the authors of the individual chapters must be commended for their interdisciplinary approach, comparative analysis and broad geographical scope of the case studies. ... It will become an essential reference for scholars and practitioners interested in conceptualization and legal-institutional design of TA and NTA. (Sergiu Constantin, European Yearbook of Minority Issues)

Reseña del editor

Minority Accommodation through Territorial and Non-Territorial Autonomy explores the relationship between minority, territory, and autonomy, and how it informs our understanding of non-territorial autonomy (NTA) as a strategy for accommodating ethno-cultural diversity in modern societies. While territorial autonomy (TA) is defined by a claim to a certain territory, NTA does not assume that it is derived from any particular right to territory, allocated to groups that are dispersed among the majority while belonging to a certain self-identified notion of group identity. In seeking to understand the value of NTA as a public policy tool for social cohesion, this volume critically dissects the autonomy arrangements of both NTA and TA, and through a conceptual analysis and case-study examination of the two models, rethinks the viability of autonomy arrangements as institutions of diversity management.

This is the second volume in a five-part series exploring the protection and representation of minorities through non-territorial means, examining this paradox within law and international relations with specific attention to non-territorial autonomy (NTA).
