statesuccessionindex.org is a new platform to assess the probability of state succession and measure the dynamics of processes that could lead to state succession and predict its possible effects.
States are not static and they could undergo changes which lead to new forms of statehood, governance and cooperation.
State Succession Index aims to contribute to the rule of law, protection of human rights, stability of international and commercial arrangements, and smooth transition for states regardless of their developmental context.
The Index uses a new approach to state succession to address the issues of international law and policy that contemporary succession raises. In this context, the term “State Succession” refers to the succession of both states and governments with some specifics. In particular, by succession we mean the process by which a state essentially modifies its structures of power and authority; and in this case any potential disruptions to existing international arrangements require being addressed with an authoritative international response.
We believe state successions will continue to happen because there are powerful centrifugal forces at work in the world. Nowadays, every succession may have significant worldwide consequences. It was once thought that only the predecessor state and its successor states were impacted by a state succession's effect. States, organisations, and even people are now closely entwined in legal, political, commercial, military, and diplomatic relationships. Because of this intricate worldwide web, the state succession has a significant influence on ever-widening rings of participants and processes.
