In this 1927 work, Hermann Heller addresses the paradox of sovereignty. That is, how the sovereign can be both the highest authority and subject to law. Unlike Kelsen and Schmitt, who seek to dissolve the paradox, Heller sees that the tensions the paradox highlights are an essential part of a society ruled by law. Sovereignty, in the sense of national and popular sovereignty, is often perceived today as being under threat, as power devolves from nation states to international bodies, and important decisions seem increasingly made by elite-dominated institutions. Hermann Heller wrote Sovereignty in 1927 amidst the very similar tensions of the Weimar Republic. In an exploration of history, constitutional and political theory, and international law, Heller speaks clearly to our contemporary concerns, and shows that democrats must defend a legal idea of sovereignty suitable for a pluralistic world. 650 0 $a Sovereignty. 650 7 $a Sovereignty. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01127379 700 1 $a Dyzenhaus, David, $e editor. 700 1 $a Cooper, Belinda, $e translator. 765 08 $i Translation of: $a Heller, Hermann, 1891-1933. $t SouveraÌnitaÌt. $d Berlin und Leipzig, W. de Gruyter & Co., 1927 $w (OCoLC)8648284 $w (OCoLC)8648284 830 0 $a History and theory of international law. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318012315.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EEBCB5CE1D7611EA83B92C1397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
