A subculture of anti-government extremists, sovereign citizens falsely deny the legitimacy of government and law, believing their interpretation of society's laws supersede all others. A much-needed introduction to Sovereign Citizen ideology in book form, this study spotlights the prevalence and scope of sovereign citizen involvement in the January 6\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e Capitol insurrection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe January 6\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e Congressional Committee reported that only two insurrectionists were sovereign citizens. Providing a more comprehensive review of their participation in the attack since that time, Christine Sarteschi draws together hours of access to court records to unveil that the correct number was much higher. Highlighting the nature of their participation in the riot, this study also details the use of sovereign citizen tactics and their interactions with court officials during the adjudication process. Addressing a topic that is underexplored yet increasingly relevant as the growth in this movement continues unabated in the United States and abroad, Sarteschi extends our knowledge of known sovereign citizen cases and also provides a practical resource for identifying and countering sovereign citizen tactics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten for scholars and students of criminal justice, criminology, social work, psychology, forensic psychology and other related disciplines, \u003cem\u003eSovereign Citizen Ideology \u003c\/em\u003eis crucial for understanding right wing extremism and social movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christine Sarteschi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1806868822\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781806868827\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Emerald Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Christine Sarteschi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48520223883519,"sku":"9781806868827","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bfa03221-3e63-4cf0-b157-d54b8c93c2a1.jpg?v=1778741477","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sovereign-citizen-ideology-christine-sarteschi-9781806868827","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
