Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book explores the history of sovereignty, tracing its evolution from its roots in medieval political thought to its modern interpretation as an attribute of the state. The author argues that the traditional theory of sovereignty, which locates sovereignty in a particular person or body, is inadequate to explain the complex realities of modern government. Instead, he proposes a new theory of sovereignty that emphasizes the legal nature of the state's authority and the importance of popular consent. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in political theory, constitutional law, or the history of political thought. It offers a fresh perspective on the nature of the state and its relationship to the individual, and challenges traditional assumptions about sovereignty and authority. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
