Carl Schmitt is widely acknowledged to be one of the most important and influential political theorists of the 20th Century.
Political Theology II is Carl Schmitt s last book. Part polemic, part self-vindication for his involvement in the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP), this is Schmitt s most theological reflection on Christianity and its concept of sovereignty following the Second Vatican Council. At a time of increasing visibility of religion in public debates and a realization that Schmitt is the major and most controversial political theorist of the twentieth century, this last book sets a new agenda for political theology today. The crisis at the beginning of the twenty-first century led to an increased interest in the study of crises in an age of extremes - an age upon which Carl Schmitt left his indelible watermark. In Political Theology II , first published in 1970, a long journey comes to an end which began in 1923 with Political Theology . This translation makes available for the first time to the English-speaking world Schmitt s understanding of Political Theology and what it implies theologically and politically.
