Are there any books on how we can combine Carl Schmitt's ideas with Austrian School of Economics?

brief me shortly on the basic ideas of Carl Schmitt and I might combine them with the Austrian School (of which I have extensive knowledge)

There is so much more to Carl Schmitt it’s not even funny that you’re this reductive. He’s quite possibly one of the most influential minds in modern legal and political philosophy and all you can say is “Nazi lawyer”.

He basically argues for a kind of semi-transcendental authoritarianism. In his view the most fundemental Idea of Politics its most fundemental distinction ist that between hostis and amicus, enemy (in the public sphere) and friend, based upon the possibility of conflict leading to war. From that the state becomes the entity which realizes the political unit lying under it, which is a larger group of "friend" who have defined their potential enemies. Because everything goes here from those friend groups it oposses simple individualism, support a strong differences between public and private life, gives the state the right to do everything in light of the enemy, oposses ideas such as oneworld government, it als supports beeing always weary of the enemy and potential war etc.
At least those i have read of, there a lot more.
I see problems with the austrian school from what i understand in its primat on the individual, altough that could be solved through a cyclical model influence of group and individual, trade is no problem, but it would be necessary to have a parralel system of self sufficency.

I think i worded that unclear, i mean a problem in the sense that it makes it harder to combine with schmitt who is more collectivist oriented. Exept for necessary Leaders.

I do not believe that these two doctrines can be combined. Schmitt's theories pertain to the nature or essence of political activity. An act of distinction is eminently political for Schmitt when it distinguishes between friend and enemy. Here we may perceive a point of contact with libertarianism by noting the connection that exists between the use of violence and the friend enemy distinction, but that is because libertarianism is a political philosophy.

Austrian economics is an economic doctrine. It doesn't have much to say about Schmitt and vice-versa.

>> No.14971963

>>14971918
I think you have a poor understanding of both. The main issue is that one is fundamentally a bottom up approach and values the reasoning ability of the entire system rather than any individual, including those who may be "leadership".

If a Nazi told you that smoking was unhealthy, would you believe him?

In all seriousness I'll never understand this mindset because there were plenty of influential intellectuals who supported the Soviet Union and never got the damnatio memoriae treatment.
