Description

This influential political theory work, originally published in 1917, presents Harold J. Laski's foundational analysis of state power and sovereignty. Through detailed examination of historical movements including the Catholic Revival and the creation of the German Empire, Laski argues that the state functions as one association among many competing for public loyalty rather than as a supreme, absolute authority. His theoretical framework challenges conventional understanding of political power by demonstrating how multiple institutions and movements shape governance and social order. The work remains essential for students and scholars of political science, philosophy, and the history of political thought, offering timeless insights into the nature of authority, statecraft, and the relationship between citizens and state institutions.

Key Features

Harold J. Laski's Studies in the Problem of Sovereignty examines competing theories of state authority and political legitimacy through historical case studies.

The work uses examples from the Catholic Revival and the German Empire to illustrate how associations beyond the state influence public obedience and loyalty.

Laski's analysis challenges the notion of absolute state supremacy by presenting the state as one association among many within the political landscape.

Originally published in 1917, this Routledge edition presents foundational political theory relevant to modern discussions of sovereignty and governance.

The book serves as essential reading for those studying political science, communism and Marxism, and the philosophical foundations of state power.
