Published on occasion of the 100 year anniversary of the Åland Islands’ autonomy, this book brings up and discusses a number of challenging issues, from constitutional and international law perspectives, concerning both the Åland situation and autonomy in general. Among the questions raised are:

Is autonomy part of international law and which international organisations may have jurisdiction?

Is autonomy a human right or is it about the prevention of violent conflicts?

Does the Åland Autonomy constitute a useful model for other minority groups?
Do the Åland Islands stand to benefit from anything in international law, be it substantive or procedural?
