Cambridge University Press Boundaries and secession in africa and international law. challenging uti possidetis, hardback/dirdeiry m. ahmed

This book challenges the central assumption of the law of territory by establishing that uti possidetis is not a general principle of law, and arguing that African customary rules were generated.

It includes in-depth coverage of African secession, with issues of human rights law, self-determination and political science presented in a new light.
