Termo equivalente: territórios não autônomos

Definição: "Non-self-governing territories are dealt with in Chapter XI of the United Nations Charter, Art. 73 being the primary source of applicable legal rules. All territories which have not yet attained full self-government are included. This status entails specific obligations for the member States of the United Nations who are charged with administering them. Only a few positive criteria for determining the meaning of “nonself-governing territory” have been established by the General Assembly's norm-defining and norm-interpreting practice. These criteria can be summed up in the so-called salt water theory. According to this theory, a territory is considered to be non-self-governing, if it is geographically separate from the administering, metropolitan State and if relations between territory and State are those of colonies with colonial governments."
