The legal background of the declaration of the individual right to “self-determination” is a complex and evolving topic in international law. According to the Australian Human Rights Commission, the right to self-determination is enshrined in international law under Article 1 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights as well as the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights1. However, the interpretation and application of this right has varied over time and across different contexts.
One of the earliest proponents of a right to self-determination was U.S. President Woodrow Wilson, who advocated for the principle of action in the aftermath of World War I2. However, it was not until the era of decolonization that the right of self-determination became recognized as a legal norm in the United Nations system, especially through the 1960 Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples and the 1970 Declaration on Principles of International Law Concerning Friendly Relations and Cooperation among States34.
The right of self-determination in the UN system was initially interpreted as the right of all colonial territories to become independent or to adopt any other status they freely chose, without regard to the wishes or interests of any distinct groups within those territories3. However, in the post-colonial era, the right of self-determination has been increasingly linked to the rights of minorities and indigenous peoples, who claim the right to govern themselves as distinct peoples within states, or in some cases, to secede from states that deny them their rights or oppress them35.
The recognition of the right of self-determination for indigenous peoples within states is perhaps the most important development of the right in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, adopted by the UN in 20073. The Declaration affirms that indigenous peoples have the right to self-determination under both the common Article 1 of the two Covenants and the specific provisions of the Declaration, which include the right to autonomy or self-government, the right to participate in decision-making, the right to maintain and develop their distinct identities and cultures, and the right to lands, territories and resources3.
The right of self-determination is not an absolute or unlimited right, and it must be balanced with other principles of international law, such as the respect for the territorial integrity and political unity of states, the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms, and the promotion of peace and security4. The exact scope and content of the right of self-determination, as well as the criteria and procedures for its exercise, remain subject to debate and interpretation by states, peoples, and international bodies. The right of self-determination is a dynamic and evolving concept that reflects the aspirations and struggles of peoples around the world for freedom, justice, and dignity.
