This article attempts to analyze the Oughtopian perspective on human security, sovereignty and global multi-level governance. For this purpose, it draws on W. B. Gallie's thesis of “essentially contested concepts” in challenging Hinsley's concepts of sovereignty and security defined with the state actor at the center. Approaching the concepts of security and sovereignty as those of such essentially contested concepts, this article introduces Choue's ideas of human-centrism as well as democratic sovereignty based on what he calls 'developmental rights' of individuals. In addition, it pays attention to the universal sovereignty put forward by Choue in relation to his proposal of Pax UN as an example of multiple dimensions of sovereignty. This Oughtopian approach to security and sovereignty is theoretically meaningful because it makes it possible to reconceptualize the concepts of both security and sovereignty flexibly reflecting the changing political environment of the contemporary world. In terms of the subject of security, it provides a strong foundation for the justification of human security vis-àvis state security. In terms of geographical scope, there can be multiple dimensions of sovereign jurisdiction including local, state, regional, and global(universal). So, it is worthwhile to explore further the theoretical ideas of Oughtopianism for the peaceful global community.
