A thought: what's the relation between Harold Laski's theory of sovereignty (articulated around the period of WW1) and that of figures like Carl Schmitt?
I'm not going to Hong Kong: little Nell's passport cant arrive in time. Which means I wont immediately write my paper 'Can we imagine a revolutionary (in the political sense) cultural studies?" But the key to the need for revolution is not that capitalism is auto-destructive but that the contemporary military-techno-finance structure can't co-exist with the contemporary nation-state (or more accurately with contemporary 'internationalism')
