The Decision Against Carl Schmitt

For Schmitt enemies and potential enemies are all that really exist. We must assert the very opposite, that friends and partial friends are all that exist.

Sticking it out

Children told that they will go far do in fact go far. But by remaining, sticking it out, and living here rather than there, one becomes much more powerful; one develops greater capacities for action; one can do more.

The Birth of Liberal Order and the Death of God: A Reply to Robert Reilly’s America on Trial — Part 3 of 3
