Description: "This book focuses on approaches to autonomy in countries whose societies are marked by ethnic diversity, and examines the effects of territorial solutions to the safeguarding of cultural identities. Studying the problem from a cross-national and analytical perspective, the contributions distinguish among the types of autonomy and their impact on pluralism, democracy, and the unity of the state."--BOOK JACKET.
