Abstract:

: Several recent books (Jackson 1999, Krasner 2001, Lake 1999, Lyon and Mastandano 1995, Philpott 2001, K. Weber 2000) evaluate the meaning of state sovereignty and its possible erosion. However, authors frequently define the concept of sovereignty and its reduction differently. I propose several categories for distinguishing between the many types of reduced sovereignty. These categories include scope (international and domestic arena, and issue area, such as security and economics), leader (international organization, single state, or informal coalition), and various measurements of the degree of hierarchic control (such as the subordinate state's voting power and the degree of physical control). I then evaluate the case in which United Nations acted as the sovereign in Cambodia. Using the typology, we can more precisely compare the varying types of reduced sovereignty. Such categorizations will enable researchers to more carefully analyze variables related to reduced sovereignty, such as what types of sovereignty states tend to delegate to international organizations vs. individual states.
