Sovereigntism can be inclusive as well, in that a country’s national identity could be tied to its relationships and connections to other legal regimes. South Africa’s Constitution, discussed infra note 10, provides such an example.

10 Inclusive sovereigntism—insisting that one’s national identity is predicated on exchanges from abroad—is an option, as South Africa’s Constitution exemplifies. See S. Afr. Const. 1996, pmbl. & ch. 2, § 39 (describing South Africa as a participant in the “family of nations” and directing its jurists that, when interpreting that nation’s bill of rights, they “must consider” international law and may consider comparative provisions).
