The Evolution of State Sovereignty: A historical overview

Abstract

The concept of the sovereignty has recently become a major bone of contention within international law and international relations theory. More recent scholarship has focused on the changing meanings of this concept across a variety of historical and political contexts. Moreover because of a process that has increasingly placed constraints on the freedom of action of states; the substance of the notion of sovereignty has changed and will further change in future. The very idea of absolute sovereignty is in many respects an outdated concept in modern international law and there are various factors causative to its erosion. As a result of especially globalization, there is a growing trend of interdependence and co-operation between states. Therefore this paper aimed at exploration of concept of sovereignty in light of its historical development. In short in this Paper the theoretical foundation of state sovereignty will be discussed by giving a broad overview of the historical development of the notion of state sovereignty.
