dc.descriptionAs the chapters in this volume demonstrate, sovereignty does not accrue naturally to a state. Taken together, these essays argue that sovereignty is a set of practices that are historically contingent—a mix of both international and intra- national pro cesses, including self- determination, international law, and ideas about natural right. To explore how and under what circumstances states become sovereign, we historicize the concept of sovereignty, considering both the meanings of sovereignty and the entities practicing sovereignty. Rather than trying to fi nd one overarching and totalizing defi nition of sovereignty—one that is ahistorical and transnational—we examine strategic sovereignties that have informed histories and shaped territories in the modern world.-
