Sažetak

The author discusses the political implications of the sovereignty of evil, which is the core concept introduced by Derek Edyvane is his forthcoming book Civic Virtue and the Sovereignty of Evil. The author's main argument is that citizens would have a hard time achieving a consensus on the preventive politics worth pursuing without first reaching an agreement regarding the evil they are trying to prevent. The problem is that the concept of sovereign evil is plural in its nature and, therefore, leads to new conflicts, rather than to a consensus among citizens. The article tries to identify instances in which a competing understanding of this concept might arise, and concludes by arguing that the model of preventive politics requires more that mere recognition of sovereign evil to become politically viable.
