Abstract

The article discusses the doctrinal evolution of state and foreign sovereign immunity in America as of 2015, and it mentions the Eleventh Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the historical aspects of federalism in America, and rulings by the nation's Supreme Court in constitutional law cases such as Chisholm v. Georgia and Hans v. State of Louisiana. Injunctive relief and an absolute immunity legal doctrine are examined, as well as the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act and abrogation.
