ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book aims to achieve a peaceful solution to sovereignty conflicts by the application of principles of distributive justice through the use of Rawlsian methodology. It demonstrates that sovereignty, still being defined as supreme authority, is a limited concept. The book also introduces a theoretical exercise to evaluate if it is possible to apply distributive justice as developed by Rawls in sovereignty disputes. It shows how these limitations work by applying the method of analogy and illustrating how a similar concept such as self-ownership was in tune with limitations. The book applies the egalitarian shared sovereignty principle to different real cases. By doing this, the egalitarian shared sovereignty principle proved to be potentially useful in order to offer a solution to sovereignty disputes, provided that all ideal and assumed conditions were present.
