Editorial Reviews
Review
`Dyzenhaus's ... reflections on Schmitt's constitutional position are nuanced and insightful. ... This book also deserves broad attention because of the way in which it relocates Hermann Heller at the centre-stage of Weimar political debate. ... shows a breadth of historical and sociological knowledge which is unusual amongst legal theorists and historians ...' History of European Ideas 26 (2000) 225-264
`The subtle contours ... will repay careful and sustained reading ... scholarly and well written ... a powerful antidote to the sad apologetics still being pandered by those who have sought to promote the work of one of fascism's most intelligent theorists.' Mark Neocleous, Radical Philosophy, jul-aug 99
Product Description

Dyzenhaus analyzes the legal theories of three eminent public lawyers of the Weimar era whose theories addressed the problems of legal and political order in a crisis-ridden modern society and demonstrates their relevance to contemporary debates.
