Description
I. CHANGING SOVEREIGNTY AND DIGNITY Sovereignty discussions in the United States and elsewhere have multiple dimensions. (1) One set of concerns, which we group under the term "external sovereignty," focuses on the prerogatives of the United States vis-a-vis other nations--to participate (or not) in new legal institutions such as the International Criminal Court, (2) to join (or not) transnational agreements such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), (3) to use (or not) opinions of other nations' courts in the development of domestic legal norms, and to engage (or not) in dialogues through adjudication to articulate international norms. (4) External sovereignty is about the literal and legal power of the United States in its relationship to other nations and to the world community.
