Changing borders by force is dangerous and destabilizing, but that doesn’t mean any change is wrong. However the current war ends, Ukraine will confront hard choices about its territory and population, and just invoking 'territorial integrity' won't supply useful answers. Ukraine's allies should start thinking about what changes could be considered legitimate, and the lessons of the former Yugoslavia can inform that process. Can secession be an instrument for peaceful political change that we could use more freely -- especially in a world in which commitments to non-aggression and territorial integrity may be breaking down?Speaker: Timothy William Waters, Professor, Indiana University Maurer School of Law, Val Nolan Faculty Fellow; Associate Director of the Center for Constitutional Democracy
