Subject(s): Summary: Analyses the evolution of permanent sovereignty from a political claim to a principle of international law, and examines its significance for a number of controversial issues such as human rights, nationalisation, and environmental conservation. Notes that the tendency to focus on rights arising from permanent sovereignty has been at the expense of matching obligations which, in an increasingly interdependent world, affect the environment, sustainable development, and the regulation of international investment.
