Carl Schmitt
Carl Schmitt was a German jurist and political theorist active during the Weimar Republic and Nazi era.
He gained prominence for his works on constitutional law and political theory, including "The Concept of the Political" (1927).
Schmitt's ideas on sovereignty, the friend-enemy distinction, and critique of liberalism influenced political thought.
Despite his controversial association with the Nazi regime, Schmitt's work continued to impact conservative intellectual circles in post-war Germany.
His later writings focused on international law and the foundations of global order.
Schmitt's legacy remains contentious due to his Nazi involvement, but his theoretical contributions continue to be debated in academic and political spheres.
