Abstract

In this article the authors comment that declaring war is not a function of the government. It focuses on powers of presidents over armed forces and views of former U.S. President George H. W. Bush on how powers of the government and presidents are separated in terms of declaring a war. It highlights powers of presidents in the U.S. constitution and sovereignty in Rome and Greece.
