Summary/Abstract: The sovereignty of the people can remain a simple fiction when the people as a whole do not become aware or not aware of the complete and complex role they have as the sole sovereign title holders of the right of state power. In the chronology of international stages, sovereignty was understood to be the quality of not being the object or "subject" to any other matter of law. It therefore presupposes the independence of the state and the fullness of its competences in the sphere of international relations.
