For political theory to reflect, and reflect upon, not just Western political societies but the politics of an interrelated world, its basic concepts must be re-thought in a new key. In On Sovereignty and Other Political Delusions Joan Cocks argues that these concepts require revision because the practical conditions on which their old definitions hinged have decomposed. With a focus on concepts of violence, sovereignty, and progress Cocks constructs her argument using three case studies: the confrontation between Anglo-American settlers and Native American tribes, the search for Jewish sovereignty in the new state of Israel and the world's reaction to the attacks on the United States on 9/11. This book unsettles and refocuses these concepts so that they can better capture and illuminate the political experience of those at the receiving end of power across the globe today.
