Summary
Belief in sovereignty relies on the fiction that absolute power is actually able to really exist and stably endure, thus bestowing political ideologies with necessarily totalitarian purposes. With reference to the critiques of sovereignty by the philosophers Claude Lefort and Slavoj Žižek and theologian Karl Barth, Rebekka A. Klein clarifies how such ideologies can be exposed and defused.
