Sovereignty marks the boundary between politics and law.
Highlighting the legal context of politics and the political
context of law, it thus contributes to the internal dynamics of
both political and legal systems. This book comprehends the
persistence of sovereignty as a political and juridical concept in
the post-sovereign social condition. The tension and paradoxical
relationship between the semantics and structures of sovereignty
and post-sovereignty are addressed by using the conceptual
framework of the autopoietic social systems theory. Using a number
of contemporary European examples, developments and paradoxes, the
author examines topics of immense interest and importance relating
to the concept of sovereignty in a globalising world. The study
argues that the modern question of sovereignty permanently
oscillating between de iure authority and de facto power cannot be
discarded by theories of supranational and transnational globalized
law and politics. Criticising quasi-theological conceptualizations
of political sovereignty and its juridical form, the study
reformulates the concept of sovereignty and its persistence as part
of the self-referential communication of the systems of positive
law and politics. The book will be of considerable interest to
academics and researchers in political, legal and social theory and
philosophy.
