Book Review of “Sovereignty or Submission”


Daniel Hannan, a British author, journalist, and Member of the European Parliament, wrote this review of a book by John Fonte entitled “Sovereignty or Submission”.  Fonte explores the trans-nationalism movement and the shift of sovereignty from the elected governments of countries to the bureaucrats of entities like the UN and the European Union.

In the last few weeks we have witnessed the removal of two elected governments in Greece and Italy, replaced by EU technocrats without an election.  The Prime Minister of Greece was removed for suggesting that the Greek people be given the opportunity to vote on the economic reforms “required” by the EU.  Democracy is anathema to the Brussels supra-national government, and the EU is thus the poster child for the dangers Fonte discusses.

Daniel Hannan, by the way, is author of a book entitled “The New Road to Serfdom: A Letter of Warning to America” in which he describes the ills of EU-style socialism and warns the US to reject Barack Obama’s attempt to impose it on the US.
