Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Heinrich Meiers work on Carl Schmitt has dramatically reoriented the international debate about Schmitt and his significance for twentiethcentury political thought. In The Lesson of Carl Schmitt, Meier identifies the core of Schmitts thought as political theologythat is, political theorizing that claims to have its ultimate ground in the revelation of a mysterious or suprarational God. This radical, but halfhidden, theological foundation underlies the whole of Schmitts often difficult and complex oeuvre, rich in historical turns and political convolutions, intentional deceptions and unintentional obfuscations.In four chapters on morality, politics, revelation, and history, Meier clarifies the difference between political philosophy and Schmitts political theology and relates the religious dimension of his thought to his support for National Socialism and his continuing antiSemitism. New to this edition are two essays that address the recently published correspondences of Schmittparticularly with Hans Blumbergand the light it sheds on his conception of political theology.
