Notes On Sovereignty - Robert Lansing - Bog

""Notes on Sovereignty: From the Standpoint of the State and of the World"" is a book written by Robert Lansing in 1921. The book explores the concept of sovereignty from both the perspective of individual states and the global community. Lansing, who served as the United States Secretary of State during World War I, draws on his experience in international diplomacy to provide insights into the nature of sovereignty and the challenges that arise when states interact with one another. The book is divided into three sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of sovereignty. The first section examines the historical development of the concept of sovereignty and its relationship to the state. The second section explores the impact of sovereignty on international relations and the challenges that arise when states assert their independence. The final section considers the role of sovereignty in the modern world and the challenges posed by globalization and the rise of non-state actors. Throughout the book, Lansing provides a nuanced and insightful analysis of the complex and often contentious concept of sovereignty, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in international relations or political theory.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
