Competing Sovereignties by Richard Joyce
Competing Sovereignties develops an account of sovereignty that comes to terms with the complex relationship between international, national and local claims to determine the content of law.The work develops a detailed and convincing account of (post)modern sovereignty that will be of great interest to many, offering a sophisticated and innovative theoretical orientation for thinking in this areaBy detaching sovereignty from the state, Joyce’s auto-positioned sovereignty offers ways of understanding how and why sovereign claims remain alluring, but ultimately impossible, at both a local and international level. - Daniel Matthews, Birkbeck Law School for Law, Culture and the Humanities, 2014
Richard Joyce’s Competing Sovereignties (CS) is a monograph whose argumentative eloquence and intellectual provocation has absolutely emerged as one of the foremost among the last generation of works on modern states sovereignty. - Elia R.G. Pusterla, London School of Economics and Political Science for Swiss Political Science Review (2014) Vol. 20(1)
