Nonetheless, secession is bound up with the ideals of self-determination and the liberal commitment to rule by the consent of the governed. It is the underlying moral legitimacy of arguments regarding self-determination that often undergird secessionist movements since, as this book argues, secession can be morally justified. The difficulty is determining when and how it is justified.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book offers an account that begins with the metaphysical nature of social relations at the root of self-determination. This account reveals that while the ideal of self-determination grants secession a moral grounding, those same ideals of self-determination require a process that is deliberate and accounts for cross-cutting obligations. It then considers the cases of Quebec, South Sudan, Ukraine, and Scotland to apply the theory to reality. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mitchell Krumm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3032243130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783032243133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Mitchell Krumm","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48997576376575,"sku":"9783032243133","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/justified-secession-mitchell-krumm-9783032243133","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
