Book, Carl Schmitt Values Technique Economicid and Guardian Cons 1/21[LS]

The legacy of Carl Schmitt by Francisco Bilac. Carl Schmitt – Values, Technique, Economicity and the Guardian of the Constitution presents the author's reflections and Schmitt's perspective on the topics related to the subject, without neglecting its historical context. With a focus on what concerns values, technique, the economy of life, the Total State, and the Guardian of the Constitution, this book also addresses authors who influenced Carl Schmitt's trajectory, such as Max Scheller and Nicolai Hartmann, even while criticizing Husserl's theories.. Even though there is no, as far as can be concluded, admission by Carl Schmitt about these influences, there are striking traces of these inspirations and of various other conservative philosophers contemporary to Schmitt, such as Ortega y Gasset. Why read Carl Schmitt?Even though he passed away in 1985, Schmitt's legacy continues to be studied, especially when we face the crises of democracy – in particular, the crisis of representative democracy. Controversial, the philosopher attracted the attention of the left and conservatives in the 1990s and continues to attract reflections on his works. This book is the result of the doctorate of Francisco Bilac M. Pinto Filho and brings notes from his advisor, Aquiles Côrtes Guimarães, in addition to studies subsequent to the completion of the course. ?
