Abstract The idea of self-determination is one of the most significant in modern international politics. For more than a century diplomats, lawyers, scholars, activists and ordinary people in every part of the globe have wrestled with its meaning and implications for decolonization, human rights, sovereignty and international order. 'The First Right' argues that there was no one self-determination, but a century-long contest between contending visions of sovereignty and rights that were as varied and changing as the nature of sovereignty itself.
