"National self-determination" as a book category covers works that examine the political, legal, social and cultural processes by which peoples, nations, and groups claim the right to determine their own political status and pursue their economic, social and cultural development. Books in this category include theoretical treatments of the principle (in political theory and international law), historical and comparative studies of decolonization, independence movements, secession and state formation, case studies of particular national struggles, and analyses of related topics such as minority rights, nationalism, referendums, sovereignty, diaspora politics, and peacebuilding. They range from academic monographs and legal texts to narrative histories, memoirs, policy studies and activist accounts, and often adopt interdisciplinary methods (history, law, sociology, anthropology, and political science). This category appeals to scholars, students, policymakers and general readers interested in how identity, power, legitimacy and law interact when communities seek autonomy, independence or recognition.
