Short description:
Early Modern ?sovereignty? arose as both a product of and a causal agent behind the establishment of European statehood. Beyond Bodin, Hobbes and Pufendorf, the volume also addresses the methodological challenges of studying early modern ´sovereignties´ from the Ottoman Empire to India and East Asia.
MoreLong description:
Was the emperor as sovereign allowed to seize the property of his subjects? Was this treated differently in late medieval Roman law vis-?-vis the theory and practice of zabt in Mughal India? How did political sovereignty relate to the church's powers and to trade? How about maritime sovereignty after Grotius? How was the East India Company as a ?corporation? interacting with an Indian Nawab? How did the shogunate negotiate ?sovereignty? in early modern Japan?
This volume addresses such questions through thoroughly researched historical case studies, covering the disciplines of History, Political Sciences, and Law.
