Description

World's leading theorists of multinational justice on sub-state national minority groups.
Almost without exception, multinational states across the West are facing existential crises precipitated by the resurgence of sub-state national minority groups. This edited volume brings together many of the world's leading theorists of multinational justice in order to analyse two of the most frequent areas of debate and dispute in multinational federations: recognition and redistribution. The authors address questions such as the following: What are the most appropriate forms of institutional recognition for sub-state national groups? How is the concept of redistributive justice affected by the presence of federal institutions and autonomous sub-state nationalities? And what are the potential sources of stability that fractious federations can call upon? As well as extensive theoretical analyses, the book is peppered throughout with examples drawn from actual multinational states including Canada, Belgium, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

This publication is GPRC-labeled (Guaranteed Peer-Reviewed Content).

Reviews

Deze bundel is ontstaan naar aanleiding van een workshop aan de KU Leuven in mei 2013, en bevat bijdragen van diverse vooraanstaande rechtswetenschappers en politicologen. Centraal staan -; zoals de titel al aangeeft -; erkenning en herverdeling in multinationale federaties, en de bundel bestaat uit drie delen.Het eerste deel bespreekt de erkenning in federale systemen van nationale en regionale groepen op substatelijk niveau. Onderwerpen die aan de orde komen zijn bijvoorbeeld non-territoriale rechtsmacht, de vormen en implicaties van institutionele erkenning, democratisering in een multinationale federatie en het belang van taal en identiteit en een bespreking van het geval van Catalonie. In deel twee van het boek staat de verdelende rechtvaardigheid centraal, met bijdragen over theorieen over 'federal contractualism' en gelijkheid, federale verdelende rechtvaardigheid in het Canadese systeem, en de interactie tussen fiscaal federalisme en solidariteit. Het boek sluit af met een derde deel waarin vertrouwen en rechtvaardigheid als basisvoor stabiliteit in multinationale federaties worden besproken.

In sum, this volume provides readers with the insightful review of various challenges connected with the resurgence of substate national minority groups within contemporary multinational federations. The authors present in-depth theoretical analyses and empirical studies that examine problems concerning actual multinational states including Canada, Belgium, Spain, and the UK. The methodological and theoretical frameworks contain several drawbacks but these drawbacks do not reduce the general cognitive value of the book. In fact, they expose difficulties that have to be overcome in future studies. Hence, the work is highly recommendable because it offers inspiring and innovative approaches toward multinational states' problems.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
