Carl Schmitt on National Socialism - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 169 National Socialism/Nazism/Schmitt: At the time, Schmitt explicated the nationalist tenet of his constitutional thinking (1), apart from the concept of the political, above all in his writings on international law. Beginning with the brochure Volksentscheid und Volksbegehren (1927), however, he so subtly translated his categories into a constitutional representation of the Weimar Republic that the strong reference to the anti-liberal alternatives of Bolshevism and Fascism disappeared from the focus of reception for some time. After 1945, the bridge was built from 1923 to 1933 and Schmitt repeatedly assumed a prior option for the "total leader state" (Fijalkowski 1958 (2)). It is also difficult to deny that he consistently represented the Caesarianism of an anti-liberal and dictatorial democracy. In the end, however, he did not opt for Hitler until 1933. 1.
