The Strategic Use of Legitimizing Norms in Unilateral Declarations of Independence
In: Global studies quarterly: GSQ, Band 4, Heft 2
ISSN: 2634-3797
Abstract
Issuing a unilateral declaration of independence (UDI) is one of the strategies secessionists use to attract attention and further their goal for statehood. This article sheds light on how secessionists instrumentalize universal norms in their UDIs to legitimize their independence and increase their chances of attracting international support. It examines UDIs issued from 1970 to 2022, investigating whether secessionists invoked universal norms and, if so, which ones. By mapping UDIs over time, the analysis shows that there are changes in which legitimizing norms are invoked in UDIs proclaimed during the Cold War, during the prevalence of the liberal international order, and during its following purported decline. The article argues that secessionists strategically manipulate the use of norms and formulate their UDIs accordingly to appeal to the endorsed legitimizing norms of the international order at the time of their secession. UDIs therefore reflect the normative trends of any given international order signaling also transitions from one order to another.

Declarations of Independence after the Cold War: Abandoning grievance and avoiding rupture
In: Nations and nationalism: journal of the Association for the Study of Ethnicity and Nationalism, Band 27, Heft 4, S. 1268-1285
ISSN: 1469-8129
AbstractDeclarations of Independence (DoIs) tend to employ the grievance topoi as a means to legitimize their demands for statehood. We find, however, that after the end of the Cold War a new subgenre of DoIs emerged, which deploys topoi not referring to grievances against the host state. These DoIs focus on commitments the secessionist state makes towards existing states. We analyse four DoIs, that of Slovenia, Croatia, Abkhazia, and Kosovo using Wodak et al.'s Critical Discourse Analysis and Wendt's categorization of state identity. Our findings show that these secessionist states pledge to adhere to the internationally recognized norms of democracy, rule of law, and human rights and put forward a discourse of "belonging" to a family of states defined by these norms. They call therefore for international recognition based on their commitment to socialization avoiding the rupture with the host state and the issue of breach of territorial integrity.
