In this article I set out Hugo Grotius’s account of sovereign entities in the De Iure Belli ac Pacis (The Rights of War and Peace, 1625). In so doing, I seek to challenge a claim not uncommonly encountered in the recent historiography of the work, namely, that Grotius had no account of the state therein. In challenging that claim, I will make a further claim that while Grotius did have an account of the state, it was only one of two forms of sovereign entity, the other being the patrimonial kingdom. While this last claim is occasionally encountered in terms of a distinction between forms of government, I go further, on the basis that the distinction identifies a fundamental conceptual difference between free and unfree nations, which speaks not only to the form of government, but to the nature of the sovereign entity itself. Furthermore, it is my contention that through the patrimonial kingdom, Grotius was able to account for empire.

邦和宗主国:雨果·格罗蒂乌斯(Hugo Grotius)在战争与和平权中对主权实体的论述

在本文中,我阐述了雨果·格罗蒂乌斯(Hugo Grotius)在《战争与和平的权利》中对主权实体的描述。(1625年)。在此过程中,我试图挑战一种在最近的作品史中并不罕见的主张,即格罗蒂乌斯没有说明其中的状态。在质疑这一主张时,我将进一步提出一个观点,即格罗蒂乌斯确实对国家有所了解,但它只是两种形式的主权实体中的一种,另一种是世袭制王国。尽管有时会根据政府形式之间的区别来遇到最后一个要求,但我还是根据其区别确定了自由国家与不自由国家之间的根本性概念差异,这进一步说明了政府的形式,也谈到了主权实体本身的性质。此外,我的争辩是,格洛蒂乌斯通过世袭制王国得以统治帝国。
