Contents:
Ch. 1. Introduction -- Ch. 2. Referents of sovereignty or discourses of sovereignty : referent as discourse and discourse as referent -- Ch. 3. Theories of sovereignty : reclaiming the domain of empirical research -- Ch. 4. Sovereignty of states and similar entities : a conceptual analysis -- Ch. 5. Juridical state sovereignty : a futile search for regular or regulated state behavior -- Ch. 6. The problem of juridical state sovereignty -- Ch. 7. Factual state sovereignty : an omnipresence that is allegedly absent -- Ch. 8. The problem of factual state sovereignty -- Ch. 9. Conclusion.
Review: "State sovereignty is the foundation of international relations. This book explores the gap between seeing sovereignty as either absolute or relative. It argues that state sovereignty is both factual and judicial and that the "loss" of sovereignty exists only at the margins of international society. With many interesting real-world examples of ambiguous sovereignty examined, this is an important argument against those who are quick to claim that "sovereignty" is under assault."--BOOK JACKET.
