Publisher's Summary

Breaking Away differs from countless other books on secession and decentralization in that it considers examples, benefits of secession, and radical decentralization in a much broader historical, geographical, and theoretical context. This book is for anyone interested in how issues of secession and decentralization come up again and again worldwide as communities of human beings seek self-determination, freedom, and economic prosperity. McMaken also examines small states which are often examples of successful cases of secession and radical decentralization.

The listener will come away with a better understanding of how political decentralization continues to be relevant, useful, and important in the modern world.
