Summary
Despite there being an abundance of publications about Carl Schmitt, there is hardly a monograph which has done justice to his work in the field of jurisprudence. Volker Neumann fills this gap by placing the main emphasis of this volume on Schmitt´s contributions to constitutional and international law. Acknowledged secondly are Schmitt´s writings on the fundamental subjects of the theory and philosophy of law, constitutional history and general theory of the state. Because Schmitt´s works are mostly responses to questions of current political challenges, their historical and biographical backgrounds are also dealt with.
