Abstract The state as we think we know it is an exception both historically and in the contemporary political arena. But private actors and international organisations also often participate in governing areas of “limited statehood”. This volume investigates the extent to which legitimate governance can exist under these conditions, and who becomes responsible for guaranteeing human rights and democratic processes. The first part takes a conceptual approach to studying the normative implications of statehood. Building on this foundation, the second part examines questions related to human rights and theories of justice that arise from limited statehood and the activities of non-state governance actors. In the third part, the authors explore the implications of limited statehood for the ideal of collective self-determination. Finally, the fourth part of the volume asks how international law should change to reflect governance in areas of limited statehood.
