The more familiar meaning of popular sovereignty is that the government is created for the people and by the people. But before the civil war, popular sovereignty was referred to as a political policy that the people who live in a specific area should chose how they are governed. Then in U.S History, it was applied mainly to the idea the settlers of federal lands should decide the relations under which they would join the Union, but mostly applied to the position of free or slave.

From the logical starting point of American constitutionalism, the concept of people's sovereignty is an important cornerstone of American constitutional system design. From the feudal system autocracy to the practice of democratic constitutionalism, the key lies in the ownership of national sovereignty. From the logical point of view, the criticism of individual monarchy and sovereignty in the concept of the king must be derived from the logic of sovereignty in the people, that is, people's sovereignty. The idea of the people's sovereignty advocates that the power of the government derives from the grant of the people, and the government has the power to protect the vital lives of citizens, life and freedom. We have come to the source of righteousness, and there is a basic discourse on the doctrine of sovereignty in the Aristotelian era and the Roman law.
Two Concepts of Liberty Summary of the essay: In this essay, the famous political theorist Isaiah Berlin tries to differentiate between the notions of positive liberty and negative liberty. Berlin briefly discusses the meaning of the word ‘freedom’. He says that a person is said to free when no man or body of men interferes with his activity.

This made people weigh the decision if communitarianism and religious freedom were more important than security and minority assimilation. Djelila and Sohane represent both sides of the conflict. Djelila is an assimilated Muslim who has conformed with Western traditions. She would miss going to the “mosque because she had to catch up on a lesson with one of her friends” (41). Yet when Djelila is among other Muslims, such as Majid and gang, she is shamed for not practicing their religion properly.
A. PREAMBLE The terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 has sparked intense curiosity and interest in the world especially the West to learn and investigate the religion of Islam. The Muslim people are portrayed as violent and barbaric, and Islam as oppressive and antithesis to human rights values. Thus, escalation of public opinion about Islam has encouraged debates and forums, and also stirred demonstrations and movements which have compelled the Muslims to speak out their minds and interpret and recast their texts viz. Quran and Sunnah of prophet Mohammad and even question and challenge the prevailing culture and practices, and domineering structures.
Indonesia went through crucial events in the last few centuries including the spread of Islamic faith and influence. The spreading started out from trades that happened between Indonesians and Arabians (Sousa). Religious laws and traditions have changed from the moment Islam spread in Indonesia.

It could be said there have always been just two political philosophies: liberty and power. Either individual ought to be allowed to experience their lives as they consider fit, to belong as they regard the rights of others, or to have the capacity to utilize constraint to make other individuals act in ways they wouldn 't choose. The theory of liberty has various names; however, its defenders have dependably had an ongoing idea of rights for the individual, they have trusted individuals to settle on choices about their own lives and fought the individuals who utilize violence to get what they seek. The idea of power has always seemed more appealing to people who are in power. We see this in socialism, fascism, communism, and totalitarianism.
David Held argues that sovereignty has been critical to state formation and the consolidation of democracy (Held 1995, 36). He claims that there are four key features of the modern state: the rule of law, territorial boundaries, the means of coercion, and legitimacy, both internal and external (Held 1995, 49). These four features of the modern nation-state encompass many of the same conceptions of sovereignty more generally. The rule of law was an important aspect of sovereignty for Held, and involved an impersonal and “supreme jurisdiction over a territory” (Held 1995, 36).
