Zusammenfassung: | This book challenges a central assumption of the international law of territory. The author argues that, contrary to the finding in the Frontier Dispute, uti possidetis is not a general principle of law enjoining states to preserve pre-existing boundaries on state succession. The book demonstrates that African state practice gave rise to customary rules of intangibility of inherited frontiers and respecting the territorial status quo that, respectively, regulate sovereign territory transfer in Africa on independence and beyond. It explains that those rules changed international law as it relates to Africa in many aspects, including the creation of norms of African jus cogens prohibiting secession and the redrawing of boundaries. The book examines in depth the phenomenon of secession in Africa, exploring extensive state practice. Finally, it advances a daring argument for a right to egalitarian self-determination, addressing domination in multi-ethnic states, to serve as an exception to the African rule against secession. |
Beschreibung: | Based on the author's thesis (Doctoral - University of Leicesester, 2013) under title: The African territorial regime : establishing its customary existence and arguing for its augmentation by a right to egalitarian secession. |

Ahmed. Cambrdige, United Kingdom : Cambridge University Press, 2015. 1 online resource text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Based on the author's thesis (Doctoral - University of Leicesester, 2013) under title: The African territorial regime : establishing its customary existence and arguing for its augmentation by a right to egalitarian secession. Includes bibliographical references and index. The Frontier Dispute case and applying uti possidetis to africa -- The rule of intangibility of inherited frontiers -- The conventional obligation to respect the territorial status quo -- The customary rule of respecting the territorial status quoce -- The changes made in international law by the African custom -- Current justifications for secession in Africa -- Domination as a possible instance for a right to external self-determination -- Towards a right to egalitarian self-determination -- Conclusion. Print version record. This book challenges a central assumption of the international law of territory. The author argues that, contrary to the finding in the Frontier Dispute, uti possidetis is not a general principle of law enjoining states to preserve pre-existing boundaries on state succession. The book demonstrates that African state practice gave rise to customary rules of intangibility of inherited frontiers and respecting the territorial status quo that, respectively, regulate sovereign territory transfer in Africa on independence and beyond. It explains that those rules changed international law as it relates to Africa in many aspects, including the creation of norms of African jus cogens prohibiting secession and the redrawing of boundaries. The book examines in depth the phenomenon of secession in Africa, exploring extensive state practice. Finally, it advances a daring argument for a right to egalitarian self-determination, addressing domination in multi-ethnic states, to serve as an exception to the African rule against secession.
