This book critically reviews the origins, policies and aspirations of independence movements and parties from the world's subnational island jurisdictions, where a distinct and separate geography tends to facilitate the emergence of an equally distinct political and cultural identity. The dynamics for any moves for political independence in the 21st century are very different from those of the 20th - driven by a desire to secure autonomy at home, but whilst maintaining a special relationship with a larger, richer country.

This book was originally published as a special issue of Commonwealth and Comparative Politics.
