126: Sovereignty

Both Politics and Theology place a heavy weight on the concept of sovereignty. Just like the idea of Human Rights, there's a difference between when these ideas began to see common use in history, and what we ground them in. It's one thing to claim that God is Sovereign, but it is another, entirely, to act accordingly.

The same goes with politics. In philosophy, we must distinguish between the story of how a concept or word came into use, and what that concept is grounded in. What is it that makes it real, as opposed to who discovered it.

And these ideas remain well below the trivial surface.
