A distinguished selection of contributors - consisting of legal and constitutional scholars, political philosophers and international relations theorists - here provide the theoretical background to the restructuring of Europe that is currently under way. They strive to place the ethical debates in a historical, legal and constitutional context; and consider important and topical issues such as the rights to seccession and self-determination of minorities in Eastern Europe, and whether national movements are justified in using force to achieve their ends. There are also contributions from Poland and Croatia.
