描述 | This book offers a detailed account of the legal issues concerning the British Indian Ocean Territory (Chagos Islands) by leading experts in the field.

This book, produced in response to the 50th anniversary of the BIOT‘s founding, also assesses the impact of the decisions taken in respect of the Territory against a wider background of decolonization while addressing important questions about the lawfulness of maintaining Overseas Territories in the post-colonial era.The chapter ‘.Anachronistic As Colonial Remnants May Be...’ - Locating the Rights of the Chagos Islanders As A Case?Study of the Operation of Human Rights Law in Colonial Territories.?is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license via link.springer.com.. |
