This paper focuses on an analysis of the sovereignty of two territorial entities that have unique relations with the United Kingdom: the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories (BOTs). Each of these entities includes very different territories, with different legal statuses and varying forms of self-administration and constitutional linkages with the UK. However, they also share similarities and challenges that enable an analysis of these territories as a complete set. The incomplete sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and BOTs has entailed that all these territories (except Gibraltar) have not been allowed to participate in the 2016 Brexit referendum or in the withdrawal negotiations with the EU. Moreover, it is reasonable to assume that Brexit is not an exceptional situation. In the future there will be more and more relevant international issues for these territories which will remain outside of their direct control, but will have a direct impact on them. Thus, if no adjustments are made to their statuses, these territories will have to keep trusting that the UK will be able to represent their interests at the same level as its own interests.

英国退欧时代的王室附属物和英国海外领土的主权

本文着重分析与英国有独特关系的两个领土实体的主权：王室附属和英国海外领土（BOT）。这些实体中的每一个都包括非常不同的领土，具有不同的法律地位以及与英国的自治形式和宪法联系的形式不同。但是，它们也具有相似性和挑战性，可以对这些领土进行完整的分析。王室附属物和BOT的主权不完全导致所有这些领土（直布罗陀除外）均未被允许参加2016年英国脱欧公投或与欧盟的退出谈判。此外，可以合理地认为英国退欧不是一个例外情况。将来，与这些领土有关的国际问题将越来越多，这些问题将不在其直接控制范围之内，但将直接对其产生影响。因此，如果不对其地位进行调整，这些领土将不得不继续相信英国将能够在与其自身利益相同的水平上代表其利益。
