non-state entities scattered around the planet. These include peculiar state-recognised entities (such as the UK’s Channel Island “bailiwick” of Guernsey with its three autonomous sub-jurisdictions); enclaves and exclaves of one nation isolated within another
(such as Kaliningrad, isolated from the rest of Russia since the break-up of the Soviet Union); micronations that have successfully established themselves outside of state boundaries (such as Sealand, on an abandoned fort in the North Sea); micronations that
assert their existence, often despite state denial and/or interference (such as Hutt River Province in western Australia); and temporary rhetorical “states” created by artists for various purposes (such as Ladonia, in southern Sweden). These non-state territorial
units are <i>performed</i> in various ways. Some imitate state mechanisms and practices at micro-levels, others parody nation-statehood in various ways while others exist virtually - through media representations of themselves
<i>as </i>micronations. The establishment and management of all these entities raises questions over nation-statehood and involve quests for autonomy conducted with various conservative, libertarian and/or anarchistic motivations.
