ERP-systems have become a vital part in the modern economy. However, to achieve a high level of information integration between business units, ERP-systems have sacrificed flexibility. As organizations are constantly changing it may be questioned whether the ERP-systems are supporting or restricting the organizations during their change process.

Principen om självbestämmande har färdats långt från sitt ursprung som ett verktyg för politisk retorik till sin nuvarande ställning som en folkrättslig princip gällande erga omnes. Såväl innehållet som tillämpligheten av självbestämmanderätten förblir dock oklar. Detta gäller särskilt nationella minoriteter, som traditionellt inte har tillerkänts denna rättighet.
