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. ; Autor raspravlja o političkim implikacijama suverenosti zla, središnjeg koncepta koji Derek Edyvane uvodi u svojoj knjizi Civic Virtue and The Sovereignty of Evil. Autorov je glavni argument da građani teško mogu postići konsenzus oko preventivne politike koju žele slijediti a da ne postignu dogovor oko zla koje žele spriječiti. Problem je u tome što je koncept zla po svojoj prirodi pluralan i stoga vodi novim sukobima, a ne konsenzusu između građana. Članak pokušava identificirati one instance u kojima suprotstavljena shvaćanja ovoga koncepta mogu isplivati, te zaključuje tvrdeći kako model preventivne politike zahtijeva više od same ideje suverenog zla da bi postao politički relevantan.

The author explains the main categories and arguments introduced in his forthcoming book Civic Virtue and the Sovereignty of Evil: Political Ethics in Uncertain Times. He offers a dualist account of public morality, contrasting aspirational with preventive politics and suggesting that the latter is often not given enough weight in contemporary political theory. He continues with introducing the idea of sovereignty of evil and clarifying its role in constituting preventive civic virtues. The author concludes by arguing that making sense of practices of civic virtue in conditions of conflict and insecurity should be in terms of the preventive austerity ethic. ; Autor pojašnjava glavne kategorije i argumente koje zagovara u svojoj knjizi Civic Virtue and the Sovereignty of Evil: Political Ethics in Uncertain Times (knjiga izlazi u drugoj polovici 2012). Autor nudi dvojno razumijevanje javnog moraliteta, uspoređujući aspiracijsku s preventivnom politikom i argumentirajući da je preventivna politika često zanemarivana u suvremenoj političkoj teoriji. Nastavlja uvodeći ideju suvereniteta zla i pojašnjavajući njenu ulogu u konstituiranju preventivnih građanskih vrlina. Autor zaključuje tvrdeći kako se smisleno prakticiranje građanskih vrlina u uvjetima sukoba i nesigurnosti treba voditi preventivnom etikom.
