Taking the indigenous and Romani transnational movements as examples, this paper concerns the self-determination claims of dispersed ethno-national communities that cannot and/or do not wish to possess a territorial nation state or other territorial political unit yet desire popular sovereignty, self-government, autonomy and participation. I argue that the Romani and indigenous predicament lies largely in the fact that the prevailing international practice of self-determination through territorial statehood or territorial autonomy is not suited for communities living on territories of various states and/or in mixed residential areas and, as such, it keeps a significant percentage of the world's population politically subordinated. This political subordination is indeed sanctioned by contemporary liberal theory and we thus need to look at some alternative political traditions that could be explored in our search for a more inclusive self-determination and fairer international system based on the vested collective rights of ethno-national communities. I suggest that some variation of the Renner–Bauer non-territorial cultural autonomy model, worked out through agonistic negotiations at discursive international fora, might be able to combine the need for both justice and the stability of the world order
