Liberal Political Philosophy - What Is It All About?

Karl schmitt: Liberalism creates the illusion that there isn't need for a sovereign until we actually need one. The idea of a dictatorship, which at the time was historically one of the most common structures of a successful society, dictatorships, in this new liberal world become unthinkable. Liberals are obsessed with setting up pre-defined norms and rules to safeguard against all these different attempts to hold power," says Schmit.
