What does the expression “frozen conflict” clarify, and what can it conceal? Livia Enzler investigates the term through conflicts in the post-Soviet region, examining how situations that appear politically suspended challenge the categories and principles of international law.
The book begins by tracing the expression’s background and use before analysing the legal problems associated with prolonged territorial disputes. It considers the relationship between contested territory, force, sovereignty, and the legal frameworks applied to situations that sit uneasily between war and peace. The study draws on cases, agreements, legislation, and materials from international and regional organisations, distinguishing a descriptive political label from the legal questions beneath it.
First published in December 2025, this complete research monograph includes its extensive bibliography, table of cases, source lists, and final conclusions. It is intended for adult readers interested in international law, territorial disputes, and the way familiar terminology shapes legal analysis.
