mit den Methoden des Hoheitsstaates using the tools of statism Explanation: Seems that this isn't really an issue of sovereignty here. The point is that top-down, ubiquitous government is failing. "Statism" might be a good term here. Main Entry: stat·ism Pronunciation: 'stA-"ti-z&m Function: noun : concentration of economic controls and planning in the hands of a highly centralized government |

monolithic state Explanation: Alternative wording - like Norbert I think the emphasis is probably on centralisation rather than actual sovereignty |
