Coe's Sovereignty in The South is an Important Contribution to The Study of International And Regional Orders And The Changing Practices of sovereignty. For Too Long Scholars of International Relations Have Merely Assumed That Foundational Norms Such as Sovereignty, Smoothly Diffused From The West to The rest. Coe Shows How Such Conventional Wisdoms Must be overturned. By Pointing to The Historical Topography That Existed Prior to The Establishment of Regional Organizations, Economic Development, And Democratization, Coe Captures The Critical Change in And Between Regions Regarding The Practice of sovereignty.' Michael Barnett, George Washington University 'Brooke Coe Provides Fresh Insights on The Development of Regionalism in The Global South, Offering a Compelling Explanation For Variation in The Willingness of Regional Organizations to Interfere in The Affairs of Sovereign states. In Showing How Differing Histories And Political And Economic Realities Across Africa, Latin America, And Southeast Asia Have Generated Varying Degrees of 'intrusive regionalism' on Issues of Human Rights, Democracy, And Security, Sovereignty in The South Makes a Valuable Contribution to International Relations scholarship.' Luke Glanville, Australian National University 'In This Path-Breaking Macro-Historical Study, Brooke N. Coe Establishes Against The Conventional Wisdom That Sovereignty-Intruding Regional Institutions Are Not Confined to The West, Let Alone Europe, But Permeate The Global South, Too, Particularly Latin America And Sub-Saharan Africa. Moreover, She Explains The Variation in Intrusive Regionalism by Emphasizing Especially The Role of Historically Embedded Identities And Community norms. A Superb Example of The Newest Comparative regionalism!' Thomas Risse, Freie Universitat Berlin
