The Sleeping Sovereign: The Invention of Modern Democracy - The Seeley Lectures
Tuck, Richard (Harvard University, Massachusetts)
An exploration of the important distinction in political theory between a 'sovereign' and a 'government' state, from its first appearance in Bodin's writings in the late sixteenth century, through its seventeenth-century treatment by Grotius, Hobbes and Pufendorf, to the eighteenth-century response, and the presentation of 'government' in the American Constitution.
