摘要
'Bill Scheuerman's 'The End of Law' offers a compelling case for the claim that Carl Schmitt's constitutional theory is not authentically democratic. This does not entail, however, that Schmitt's views are of no relevance for understanding the contemporary crisis of democracy. Schmitt's arguments offer a blueprint for the populist-authoritarian subversion of democracy. Defenders of democracy are therefore well-advised to engage with Schmitt's ideas.'
