Excerpt from History of the Theory of Sovereignty Since Rousseau The beginnings of the theory of sovereignty are found in Aristotle's Politics, and the classic body of the Roman Law. In the Politics there is a recognition of the fact that there must be a supreme power existing in the state, and that this power may be in the hands of one, or a few, or of many.' In Chapter II, of Book III, appears a justification of the rule of the many, fairly expressed in the statement that the principle that the multitude ought to be supreme rather than the few best is capable of a satisfactory explanation, and though not free from difficulty, yet seems to contain an element of truth.
