Special Statute of Autonomy

A Special Statute of Autonomy is a legal agreement that grants a specific region or area a higher degree of self-governance within a country. It allows the region to make its own laws, manage certain local affairs, and preserve its cultural identity, while still being part of the national state. This arrangement is typically established to address unique cultural, historical, or political circumstances, ensuring the region’s interests are protected and its voice is heard within the larger national framework.
