This book is intended to analyze the formation, development and the changes in the sovereignty of the Nation State within the European continent. Considering the influence of these transformations since their appearance, until its contemporary reality of the 21st century (Warns Morgenthau, 2003, p.567):
The complaint of the principle of sovereignty by the people who understand the intimate connection between this principle and the weakness of a decentralized system occurs much more frequently than a serious attempt to understand its nature and the function it plays for the system of modern states. As a result, and despite the efforts of some notable scholars, there is still much confusion about the meaning of the word and what is or is not compatible with the sovereignty of a nation.
