This new volume shows how state sovereignty is more fluid and
contested than is usually appreciated within both conventional and
constructivist literature. Whereas previous constructivist works
have investigated the temporal contingency of state sovereignty,
the spatial contingency of this concept has been neglected. This
book tackles this situation, showing the reader how the meaning of
state sovereignty was constituted differently in the case of the
intervention in Kosovo and the case of non-intervention in Algeria
in the late 1990s. This essential study clearly and concisely:
takes existing constructivist and poststructuralist work on state
sovereignty one step further, arguing that state sovereignty not
only is open to different constructions over time, but also across
space probes further into the conceptual relationships between
sovereignty/ intervention, arguing that legitimations of
non-intervention also can be analyzed as a practice, which gives
meaning and content to the concept of state sovereignty contributes
to the emerging debate on the importance of 'methodology' in
constructivist studies, turning the philosophical and
meta-theoretical assumptions of constructivism and
poststructuralism into an informed 'analytical strategy' guiding
the book's empirical discourse analysis.
