The Visigothic Kingdom in Iberia
The structures of the late ancient Visigothic kingdom of Iberia were rooted in those of Roman Hispania, Santiago Castellanos argues, but Catholic bishops subsequently produced a narrative of process and power from the episcopal point of view that became the official record and primary documentation for all later historians. The delineation of these two discrete projects—of construction and invention—form the core of The Visigothic Kingdom in Iberia. Castellanos reads documents of the period that are little known to many Anglophone scholars, including records of church councils, sermons, and letters, and utilizes archaeological findings to determine how the political system of elites related to local communities, and how the documentation they created promoted an ideological agenda. Looking particularly at the archaeological record, he finds that rural communities in the region were complex worlds unto themselves, with clear internal social stratification little recognized by the literate elites.

With the rise of direct-democratic instruments, the relationship between popular sovereignty and the rule of law is set to become one of the defining political issues of our time.

Secession and Statehood
This book analyses the complex phenomenon of secession as a form of creation of States from the perspective of international law. As opposed to other approaches based on the analysis of the political foundation of the secessionist processes or on the construction of a legal basis that justifies the existing practice, the aim is to provide an explanation of secession as a practice covered neither by the legal regime of the United Nations for the self-determination of colonial peoples nor by the regulations and guidelines relating to the human rights of minorities and indigenous populations, both in the UN and in regional organisations (Organization of American States, Council of Europe or Afr...
El derecho de Autodeterminación de los Pueblos en el siglo XXI
En el presente trabajo he tratado de abordar la autodeterminación de los pueblos desde una posición libre de valores. Creyendo en la axiología que debe informar a todo analista cuando se adentra en sus objetos de estudio. Sobre todo en disciplinas que nos condicionan tanto como las Ciencias Sociales, donde somos investigador y a la vez objeto del análisis. Somos sujetos que vivimos dentro de sistemas jurídicos y políticos y por ende presos de prejuicios analíticos que nuestra posición social nos impone. Pero mi intención ha sido aproximarme a este complejo objeto de estudio al margen de cualquier prejuicio político establecido, tratando de no dejarme influir por la enorme carga de ...
