Minority Accommodation through Territorial and Non-Territorial Autonomy (Minorities & Non-territorial Autonomy)

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).
