It probably goes without saying (but should probably be said anyway) that any democracy mobilized to the cause of irridentism should emphasize the cause for self-determination.</div> Sat, 29 Jul 2006 12:53:18 -0700 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3431 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3432 <div>EDIT: ...any democracy mobilized to the cause of <b>stopping</b> irridentism...</div> Sat, 29 Jul 2006 12:54:57 -0700 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3432 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3436 <div>Good point Chris. And it's hard to emphasize self-determination when democracy is being imposed from without, which is why I expect America's current efforts to spread democracy will be an unfortunate failure.</div> Sat, 29 Jul 2006 14:30:35 -0700 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3436 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3437 <div>True enough, though I expect that eventually the Kurds of Turkey and Iran will be clamoring to join <i>Iraqi</i> Kurdistan, which is, ironically, a home-grown democracy of sorts (it emerged in the 1990s power-vacuum opened by the no-fly zones) and much more stable than the rest of Iraq.</div> Sat, 29 Jul 2006 17:45:11 -0700 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-3437 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-4355 <div>Hey im doing a civics summative on irridentism and am not quite sure what it is, i get a good idea because of the definition. Im not sure but is it basically without going into detail that the country that owns a region should be in control of that region that they have controlled in the past. If you could just give me a more detailed report on the subject, or link me to site were i can further my studies it would be very helpful.<br /> Thanks</div> Wed, 13 Dec 2006 14:39:45 -0800 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-4355 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-4356 <div>Blake, I'd recommend <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irridentism">Wikipedia</a> , and the sources referenced there.</div> Wed, 13 Dec 2006 18:53:20 -0800 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-4356 http://typewriting.org/2003/12/29/irridentism/#comment-4357 <div>Thanks, I like your website alot as well.
