Sinopsis
Excerpt from Studies in the Problem of Sovereignty
I should like, too, to associate whatever there is of good in the thought of this book, with the name of my friend, Alec Rowan Herron, Scholar of New College and second-lieutenant in the King's Royal Rifles, who fell at Givenchy in the first year of war. What we have lost in him only those of us who had the rare privilege of his intimate friendship can tell; but I may be permitted to say that it was the opinion of those with the right to judge that a very brilliant career lay before him.
This book could never have been written were it not for the constant and splendid sympathy of my friend, Professor Frankfurter of the Harvard Law School. If I mention that, and the debt it of course owes to my wife, it is not in repayment, but in recognition. They, I know, will understand.

Excerpt from Studies in the Problem of Sovereignty
This volume is the first of a series of studies in which I hope to discuss in various aspects the theory of the State. Its starting point is the belief that in such a theory, the problem of sovereignty is fundamental, and that only in the light of its conception can any satisfactory attitude be adopted. It is essentially a critical work, and it is only in the most tentative fashion that I have hinted at what seems to me the right avenue of approach. When I have finished similar studies in the political theory of the Catholic Reaction in France during the nineteenth century, and of the Conciliar Movement in the fifteenth, it may be that I shall be able to attempt a more constructive discussion. But it has not seemed to me entirely purposeless to point out the dangers of an attitude fraught with consequences so momentous to the character of our political institutions.
How much it owes to Maitland and Saleilles and Dr. Figgis, I dare not estimate; but if it sends anyone to their books (and particularly to Maitland's) I shall be well content. I owe much, too, to the work of my friend and colleague, Professor McIlwain, from whose 'High Court of Parliament' I have derived a whole fund of valuable ideas.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the fundamental tension between the sovereign power of the State and the sovereignty of other entities within the State, such as the Church. The author explores the historical development of this tension, beginning with medieval times, through the era of the Protestant Reformation, and up to the 19th century. Drawing on the political theory of the Disruption, a schism within the Church of Scotland, the book highlights the clash between the State's claim to absolute authority and the Church's insistence on its own spiritual autonomy. The author argues that this conflict continues to define modern politics, as States seek to assert their dominance over all aspects of society, including religion and education. The book offers valuable insights into the nature of sovereignty and the limits of State power. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
