- More about Lithuania’s Quest for Self-Determination: Municipal Responses to National Emigration
Self-determination in the European Union is based on the strength and skills of representatives to manage relationships with other nations, and for individuals, it rests on the ability to use autonomy and freedom wisely. To flourish, an individual must consciously determine their own path, and a country can flourish if it has the forces that facilitate or hinder its ability to succeed as a society. This paradox is addressed in the book by examining how municipalities in Lithuania respond to ongoing population shrinking due to emigration, the non-economic factors that facilitate decisions to emigrate, and the opportunities for local governments to shrink smartly or reverse shrinkage.

Self-determination in the European Union is built on the ability of a country's representatives to manage and leverage relationships with other nations, as well as the autonomy and freedom of individuals to use their own judgment wisely. For a country to thrive, it must consciously determine its own path, while individuals must also make their own choices. The strength and skills of a country's representatives are crucial in determining its ability to succeed as a society, and the same forces that can help a nation to flourish can also accelerate the decision to emigrate among its people. This paradox is the quest for national and individual self-determination, which allows for choice in emigration but also encourages return migration for those who have left. In this book, we address this paradox and quest using the case of Lithuania. Specifically, we examine how municipalities in Lithuania respond to ongoing population shrinking due to emigration, the non-economic factors that facilitate decisions to emigrate, and the opportunities for local governments to shrink smartly or reverse shrinkage.
