Dieter Grimm's accessible introduction to the concept of
sovereignty ties the evolution of the idea to historical events,
from the religious conflicts of sixteenth-century Europe to today's
trends in globalization and transnational institutions. Grimm
wonders whether recent political changes have undermined notions of
national sovereignty, comparing manifestations of the concept in
different parts of the world. Geared for classroom use, the study
maps various notions of sovereignty in relation to the people, the
nation, the state, and the federation, distinguishing between
internal and external types of sovereignty. Grimm's book will
appeal to political theorists and cultural-studies scholars and to
readers interested in the role of charisma, power, originality, and
individuality in political rule.
