Conclusion: Toward a Transnational Politics of Popular SovereigntyReviewsAn excellent discourse on the concept of sovereignty and on how this is transformed in the global age. It provides an imaginative and erudite comparison between the classic and the modern concepts of sovereignty. Lupel uncovers how democracy is today challenged and offers important insights to make democracy compatible with globalization by granting greater legitimacy and powers to transnational movements and institutions. Daniele Archibugi, Italian National Research Council, Italy, and Birkbeck College, University of London, UK Does globalization render the concept of popular sovereignty depasse? Seeking to redeem an indispensable element of democracy, Adam Lupel undertakes to re-imagine popular sovereignty for a postwestphalian world.
