This article reviews Jeanne Morefield's "Empire's Without Imperialism: Anglo-American Decline and the Politics of Deflection," and Andrew Fitzmaurice's "Sovereignty, Property, and Empire, 1500-2000." Both books are sterling representatives of the growing field of political theory and empire and ought to be of interest to scholars of political science, international relations, international law, political theory, intellectual history, empire, imperialism, and colonialism.
