Sovrani e sudditi : la riflessione di Alberico Gentili tra assolutismo e cosmopolitismo

2017 - Editoriale Scientifica

255-278 p.

  • In the essay the author focuses on Alberico Gentili (1552-1608)'s approach to the issue of relation between sovereigns and subjects, a central question in Gentili's work. Gentili's juridical and political elaboration is strongly inspired to Bodin's reflection on sovereignty as to the tradition of stoic cosmopolitanism: these two components are not easy to conciliate, however Gentili offers an efficient synthesis of them and gives a fundamental contribution to the modern doctrine of ius gentium. [Publisher's text].
