Description
Authors deconstruct the language and concepts of sovereignty and territory, and re-examine the relationship between the two. They advocate shifting away from contemporary models of “sovereignty over a territory” and towards an approach in which the practice of sovereignty is rooted in a particular territory, its peoples and communities.
