This book was originally published by Claeys and Casteels, now
formally part of Edward Elgar Publishing. For almost 400 years,
under the Westphalian system established in 1648, the classic
notion of sovereignty has been the pillar of the international
relations among States free to do what they want within their
territory with the prohibition of intervention in one another's
affairs. Humanitarian crisis, international terrorism, weapon of
mass destruction, failed states, pandemic, the increasing role of
regional and international entities, ONG and financial entities
have eroded the tenuous boundaries between the domestic and
international notion of sovereignty. Sovereignty no longer provides
protection to the State which to survive must cede some power in
order to cope with the challenges of the new international order.
However, despite the increasing number of actors in the
international arena and the identity crisis of the notion of
sovereignty, the State is bound to remain the lead actor on the
global stage and, in this light, sovereignty can emerge stronger,
provided it fully incorporates its responsibility towards the its
own people and the entirety of the international community.
