Sovereignty and self-determination in times of Brexit

The question of national self-determination is a live one in Europe. In recent years, movements for self-government have increasingly placed their demands in a broader European rather than a pure state context. For some, the European Union and the broader framework of European security and human rights have lowered the threshold and costs of independence. The Brexit - the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU - opens a completely new capital of European integration. Neither the states nor the EU as a whole have developed consistent normative and legal principles for dealing with these challenges.

In this event, organized by the University Pompeu Fabra, the Institut Barcelona d'Estudis Internacionals (IBEI) and Diplocat, we will discuss the consequences of these developments for the future of the EU.
