About this episode
The American satirist Joe Queenan goes in search of sovereignty. He wants to know what it is, what's it for, and how old it is
"Now I know this is a big issue for you all right now. Over here we've been fighting over sovereignty since the eighties. The 1780s. But I still don't really understand what it is, nor why it's making everyone so mad."
With contributions from Professor Richard Bourke, editor of Popular Sovereignty in Historical Perspective; and Edith Hall the author of Aristotle's Way: How Ancient Wisdom Can Change Your Life.
The producer in Bristol is Miles Warde
