Produktinformationen zu „Sovereignty (PDF)“
Sovereignty is at the very centre of the political and legal
arrangements of the modern world. The idea originated in the
controversies and wars, both religious and political, of 16th and
17th century Europe and since that time it has continued to spread
and evolve. Today sovereignty is a global system of authority: it
extends across all religions, civilizations, languages, cultures,
ethnic and racial groupings, and other collectivities into which
humanity is divided.
In this highly accessible book, Robert Jackson provides a
concise and comprehensive introduction to the history and meaning
of sovereignty. Drawing on a wide range of examples from the US
Declaration of Independence to terrorist attacks of 9/11 he shows
how sovereignty operates in our daily lives and analyses the issues
raised by its universality and centrality in the organization of
the world. The book covers core topics such as the discourse of
sovereignty, the global expansion of sovereignty, the rise of
popular sovereignty, and the relationship between sovereignty and
human rights. It concludes by examining future challenges facing
sovereignty in an era of globalization.
This interdisciplinary study will be of interest to a wide range
of students, academics and general readers who seek to understand
this fundamental concept of the modern world.
