Territorial (Se)Cession in Light of the Recent Events in Crimea
Original language description
The chapter assesses the rules on territorial (se)cession that apply under current international law, in light of the recent events in Crimea. The first section focuses on (se)cession as a legal basis for territorial changes. It discusses whether a state may lawfully incorporate a part of the territory' of another state in the absence of an effective government in the latter state; and under what conditions the cession of part of a state's territory may occur on the basis of a bilateral treaty. The second section deals with territorial referendums and their role in the process of (se)cession. It considers whether a referendum is a necessary and/or sufficient condition for the lawfulness of (se)cession and what procedural standards, if any, apply to its course.
