Last call for Telos 208: Carl Schmitt and the Crisis of Liberal Democracy

Next week we will release Telos 209, so be sure to pick up your copy today of Telos 208 (Fall 2024): Carl Schmitt and the Crisis of Liberal Democracy at the lower current issue price at the Telos Press website. Individual subscriptions to Telos are also available in both print and online formats.

Are liberal democracies inherently unstable? Do they depend on cultural preconditions out of their control for their stability? How can they maintain themselves in spite of the challenges? Carl Schmitt’s The Crisis of Parliamentary Democracy remains one of the key meditations on these questions, and this issue of Telos focuses on this book to explore the foundations of liberal democracies and the major challenges to their stability.
