Abstract

Secessionism is a process that has been part of international discourse since the development of government. Regardless of the success or equity created under a particular rule, various groups have sought separation from the state in an effort to create more autonomy and achieve a higher level of independence. While some secessionist movements have taken place without any real conflict or controversy, scholars report that, "Self-determination movements are the most frequent source of violent conflict in the international system today" (Walter, 313). As such, it is not surprising to find that the scholarship on secessionism and secessionist movements has increased dramatically in recent years. As secessionism serves to threaten global peace and America's asserted hegemonic power, interest in secessionist movements has become a more pressing issue for international discourse.Given the importance of secessionism to the overall stability of the international community, there is a clear impetus to understand this process and its overall impact on the development of the international community. Using this as a basis for research, this investigation considers a broad overview of modern secessionist movements.
