Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex relationship between sovereignty and government, examining how societies have conceived of these concepts and how they have evolved over time. The author argues that sovereignty is not a static or absolute concept, but rather a variable phenomenon that has taken different forms in different historical contexts. sovereignty has been understood as both a power to compel obedience and a right to exercise power, and government has been seen as both an expression of sovereignty and a separate entity. The book traces the evolution of these ideas from the ancient Greeks to the present day, examining the work of major political philosophers such as Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Paine. Through the work of these thinkers, the author shows how the assumptions that people make about sovereignty and government shape the political systems they create, and how these systems, in turn, shape the lives of individuals. This book offers a fresh perspective on the nature of sovereignty and government, and will be of interest to anyone interested in political theory or the history of political thought.
