Here, in his book Sovereignty, Bronner provides an original and provocative set of views on this urgent topic especially topical owing to its clear focus on such pressing issues as immigration, refugees, populism, transnational power, and the fate of democracy not only in the United States but around the world. As usual, Bronner presents his work in a style accessible to both an academic and general readership. The book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the special challenges facing contemporary American politics." Carl Boggs, Professor of Social Sciences, National University, author of Fascism Old and New and Origins of the Warfare State. "In a time of democratic deficit and the emergence of a new authoritarian populism, Bronner has written a timely book about the nature of political power that can help us find clarity and critical judgment. He provides us with an incisive political critique of the reactionary forms of power and authority that are on the rise while at the same time pointing us toward a cosmopolitan, democratic alternative that can inspire social transformation and offer principles for a more democratic politics yet to be realized." Michael J. Thompson, William Paterson University "In his latest book, political theorist Stephen Bronner problemtizes the traditional assumptions of sovereignty as unable to stand up to the challenges of our time. In doing so, Bronner posits the idea of cosmopolitan sovereignty as an intellectual exercise in envisioning the traditional boundaries of power, state sovereignty and democracy to account for the recent socio-political trends with a particular focus on hate, bigotry, and identity politics. This is a critical work that addresses some of the vital questions that plague our time, which will benefit students and anyone curious about these trends and how they can be overcome."
