书名: Carl Schmitt's Critique of Liberalism: Against Politics as Technology (Modern European Philosophy)
作者: John P. McCormick (Author)
出版社: Cambridge University Press; First Edition (July 28, 1997)
语言: English
ISBN-10: 0521591678
ISBN-13: 978-0521591676
Book Description
In this first in-depth critical appraisal in English of the writings of Carl Schmitt, John McCormick has furnished philosophers, historians, and political theorists with the most comprehensive account of Schmitt's critique of liberalism available. He examines why technology becomes a rallying cry for both right- and left-wing intellectuals at times when liberalism appears anachronistic, and shows the continuities between Weimar's ideological debates and those of our own age.
"...this extremely well researched work is filled with nuanced and intelligent discussions of Schmitt's legal philosophy, his changing attitude towards commissarial and sovereign dictatorship, his relationship to Lukacs, and a host of other topics. All serious students of Schmitt, Weber, the Frankfurt School, neo-Hegelianism, political representation, and the politics of technology will want to read it." -- American Political Science Review
