This book examines the origins of the principle of sovereignty in the legal and political thought of its most influential theorist, Jean Bodin. It explores Bodin's creative synthesis of classical sources in philosophy, history, and the medieval legal science of Roman and canon law in crafting the rules governing state-centric politics.
