"What Heidegger's "Being and Time" is to European philosophy, "Constitutional Theory" is to European political philosophy. It is astounding that one of the most important works of twentieth-century political theory has remained untranslated until now. But this edition makes the wait worthwhile."-- John P. McCormick, University of Chicago
""Constitutional Theory" represents an unparalleled milestone in Schmitt translations. Indispensable to scholars in political and legal theory, it will undoubtedly occupy a pivotal place in debates over Schmitt. In itself, the Seitzer-Thornhill introduction constitutes one of the most authoritative and intellectually sophisticated contributions to this field in decades."--Joseph W. Bendersky author of "Carl Schmitt: Theorist for the Reich"
