Was the emperor as sovereign allowed to seize the property of his subjects? Was this treated differently in late medieval Roman law vis-à-vis the theory and practice of zabt in Mughal India? How is political sovereignty relating to the church´s powers and to trade? How about maritime sovereignty after Grotius? How was the East India Company as a ‘corporation’ interacting with an Indian Nawab? How was the Shogunate and the emperor negotiating ´sovereignty´ in early modern Japan?
This volume addresses such questions through thoroughly researched historical case studies, covering the disciplines of History, Political Sciences, and Law.
