Prepared under the supervision of Dr Ben Twinomugisha, Faculty of Law, Makerere University, Uganda. LLM Dissertation (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa -- University of Pretoria, 2009. The main objectives of this study are: 1) To critically appraise the supposed tension between ‘territorial integrity’ on the one hand, and the peoples’ right to self-determination as a basis for secession. 2) To demonstrate that the current position of the law is tactically vague and crippling to the international efforts for a better and peaceful world for all. 3) To draw lessons from the practice of the United Nations and other regional bodies in diffusing violent conflict and maintaining peace where secession claims have taken violent forms. 4) To suggest an edifice for the permanent mandate of the United Nations to deal with secession claims. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2010-05-03T13:04:01Z 2010-05-03T13:04:01Z 2009 2009 Mini Dissertation Theu, B 2009, The law of self-determination (secession in perspective): way forward after Kosovo and Southern Sudan, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/14018> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/14018 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria |
