The theory and practice of non‐territorial autonomy in Europe—A historical perspective
The concept of non‐territorial autonomy (NTA), which aims at separating the notions of the nation and territory, has received many practical implementations—in different forms and guises and in a variety of political settings—since the beginning of the 20th century.

Forgotten Europeans
This article examines transnational activism by coalitions of national minorities in Europe from the early 20th century to the present, setting this within the broader ‘security versus democracy dilemma’ that continues to surround international discussions on minority rights.

But when it came to his native Latvia, Stučka was not so quick to subscribe to Leninist internationalism in practice as he was in theory, often demonstrating conflicting views and attitudes, and at times behaving in a manne…
Civic or ethnic nation? Two competing concepts in interwar Latvia
This article examines the historical development of the two different concepts of the Latvian nation: the one that included the equal participation of all ethnic groups residing in Latvia, and the one that put them at the margins of the new state. In 1919, citizenship was granted to all Latvian residents irrespective of their ethnicity, while the Law on Minorities' Schools established a framework for cultural autonomy. National unity was perceive…
