Security Governance in a Post-sovereign World | ||
in Internationale Politik und Gesellschaft , Heft 3, 2008 , 2008 , 28-42 | ||
ABSTRACT: In a growing number of states, the monopoly of force has eroded. On a systemic level, the validity of an international order based on sovereign states comes into question if a growing number of these states are merely fictional. Efforts by the international community to restore order and stop mass atrocities have created new forms of »soft« sovereignty, ranging from all-out international protectorates to forms of »supervised sovereignty« and »subsidiary transitional sovereignty. | ||
