Question

Does participation in global treaties and organizations help or hinder U.S. sovereignty

Answer 1

The concepts "sovereignty", "freedom", and "independence" are among the most important, and at the same time most sensitive concepts of public discourse. Many people have laboured under the delusion that their meaning is simply not to be dependent on others. However, any discussion of these concepts must take into account the changes in progress all around us. We cannot use them as if they were creations of our own minds, independent of the reality in which we live.
