Waning Sovereignty by Wendy Brown...for her critical analysis of the symptomatic diminishing of sovereignty because of globalization. The book begins with an account of ‘tour’ of contemporary walls where Brown pledges to explore the ways in which the world’s new walls share deep-seated similarities.
