Condition: very good. Brussels, Belgium : VUB Brussels University Press, 2002. Paperback. 308 pp. Stamp. - The contributions to this book analyse processes of secession in terms of the complex relations between political action and scientific knowledge. In secessionist crises, opposing concepts of nation-building clash, as do divergent interpretations of society and history. The book compares the intellectual responses given to the question of secession according to differing national contexts. The first field of enquiry concerns the relation between scholars and political practitioners. The institutional setting in which scientific research is carried out may ether force researchers to depend on the state or favour their autonomy. The second field of enquiry concerns the respective contributions of various scientific disciplines to debates ons secession: scientific knowledge may highlight identities rooted in the past, support present grievances or develop blueprints for the future. The thierd question has to do with the criteria of scientific objectivity and truthfulness as used in discourses for, against and on secession. The volume is aimed at an interdisciplinary audience. With its in-depth analysis both of the legitimising discourses of secessionist movements and of questions of methodology in history and the social sciences, it is relevant for researchers and students of history, politics and international relations.
