The international recognition of the principle of the right of peoples to self-determination emerged through the charters of global and regional international organizations, as well as international human rights conventions. This is in addition to the role of the United Nations through General Assembly resolutions and Security Council decisions that effectively and practically codified the principle. Consequently, exercising this right as an international UN mechanism aimed at securing the independence of nations under colonial rule and conferring legal legitimacy on the right of self-determination must primarily rely on these legal rules codified in international charters. This research paper aims to shed light on the concept of self-determination as a principle of international law, alongside studying the Western Sahara issue as a case study embodying the Sahrawi people's right to self-determination within international practice.
