Sovereignty Games

Though the chapter authors have different perspectives on sovereignty, the impact of the book as a whole is to provide a distinctive inter-weaving of these perspectives such that the whole is definitely greater than the sum of the parts. This is a book that should acquire a wide readership: not just those interested in sovereignty per se or in disputes over its meaning but also those who have more practical concerns. This is a rich collection which will become a landmark study and that will repay reading by a wide audience." - John Agnew, University of California-Los Angels
