Sovereignty

Sovereignty is understood in jurisprudence as the full right and power of a governing body to govern itself without any interference from outside sources or bodies. In political theory, sovereignty is a substantive term designating supreme authority over some polity. It is a basic principle underlying the dominant Westphalian model of state foundation.

Derived from Latin through French souveraineté, its attainment and retention, in both Chinese and Western culture, has traditionally been associated with certain moral imperatives upon any claimant.

Different approaches

The concept of sovereignty has been discussed throughout history, from the time before recorded history through to the present day. It has changed in its definition, concept, and application throughout, especially during the Age of Enlightenment. The current notion of state sovereignty contains four aspects consisting of territory, population, authority and recognition. According to Stephen D. Krasner, the term could also be understood in four different ways:

Entity (netlabel)

Entity is a netlabel specialising in experimental electronic music. The label was established in 2003 by Belgian musicians Jan Robbe and Nico de Gols, working under the monikers UndaCova and Kaebin Yield, respectively. Formed from the remnants of the now defunct dark ambient/noise netlabel Tinnitus, Entity has since expanded its repertoire to include many different genres, and has released music by artists from all over the world. In 2005 Gols parted ways with Entity, leaving Robbe as the sole label manager. Entity is a nonprofit netlabel that distributes its releases for free under Creative Commons licenses, hosted by file repositories Archive.org and Scene.org.

Notable in the label's catalogue are releases by Robbe himself, who goes under the names Atomhead, Erratic and UndaCova; Entity-born collaborative groups xE Phalanx and Idle Sunder, Hecq, Xanopticon, Hangars Liquides-owner La Peste, Zavoloka, Subskan, Sytrjv, Cisfinitum, and many others. Entity celebrated its 40th release with Tetroid 2012; a game and electronic music compilation. It has been described as a "psychedelic Tetris clone (with references to Mr. Driller and Arkanoid as well), featuring 21 music artists. It is meant to bring experimental electronic music closer to the people." Entity marked its 50th release with a follow-up compilation entitled Vortex, which was acclaimed by one journalist as the "singular apogee of Entity's artistic vision". It was played on Mary Anne Hobbs' Radio 1's Experimental Show, which often features Entity artists Barbarix and Herd.

Sovereign (video game)

Sovereign was a Massively multiplayer online real-time strategy (MMORTS) game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and cancelled in 2003.

Sovereign would have given each player a home world, to which their forces would retreat when the players signed off. Thus, the developers hoped to prevent players from losing their hard-won resources and valuable units when they signed off. The actual battles would be fought on different planets, each one holding from 15 to 500 players, depending on the size of the planet. A system of specialization would affect how well players did in battle, as well as how effective players were in trading and diplomacy. The game ultimately never made it out of the early development stages and was cancelled in 2003.
