Language Laws And Regional Identity: A Case Study Of Euskera In The Basque Country, Jenna Ebel
Language Laws And Regional Identity: A Case Study Of Euskera In The Basque Country, Jenna Ebel
Honors Theses
This thesis explores the interconnectivity between language laws and regional identity, focusing on education, public health, and transnational systems.

These recommendations should promote the development of the international shipping industry, and bring peace to the Gulf of Aden.

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
State secession is a rare occurrence in the international system. While a number of movements seek secession, the majority fail to achieve statehood. Of the exceptional successes, many have not had the strongest claims to statehood; some of these new states look far less like states than some that have failed. So what accounts for these secessions? I argue that the politics of regional actors drive the process. If a secessionist movement does not have the support of actors in the region, it will not achieve statehood. There are three mechanisms through which regional actors can determine outcomes: (1) they …
