Beskrivning

This book provides a complete documentary history of the idea of sovereignty from Classical theory to the global age. The historical examination of sovereignty leads the author to conclude that the recent transformation of the principle of sovereignty can be understood in the context of 'new international constitutionalism'.

Recensioner i media

'Sovereignty has been the subject of an uncommon amount of recent discussion...One might think that there is nothing more worth saying. Shinoda shows otherwise. He makes a convincing case that sovereignty is conceptually intelligible only by situating it in the context of society. He surveys a wealth of materials, largely unexplored by other scholars, to make his case. He also shows that various conceptions of sovereignty entail conceptions of international society that are largely left implicit. While Shinoda himself refrains from speculating about sovereignty's future, his work makes it plain enough why recent speculation points in so many directions.' - Nicholas Onuf
