The author takes into account the variety of aspects of this term, an provides the grounds for the separation of this term into state sovereignty, national sovereignty and sovereignty of the people. The author then shows the need for the analysis of each aspect of sovereignty taking into account the globalization and regionalization processes, as well as the need to study the basic patterns and historical forms regarding sovereignty of nation-states and various aspects of their functioning. The article includes analysis of scientifi c works of Russian and foreign writers, which were devoted to the topical issues of establishment and analysis of the idea of sovereignty. The author then proves that the idea of national sovereignty characterizes the stage of development of nation-state, when it is recognized as a subject of all-national interests within the framework of global law and order. The author then actualizes the infl uence of social and cultural conditions on the understanding of sovereignty, and he clarifi es the formula of theoretical and methodological apparatus of sovereignty, following the genesis of introduction of ideas on sovereignty into the formation of a state.
