Authority Not Majority

Meer over het boek

Friedrich Julius Stahl was a significant yet overlooked figure in 19th century Germany, known for his contributions as a philosopher, constitutional law professor, and statesman. His Christian political philosophy shaped practical politics during a tumultuous era, particularly around 1848, and left a lasting influence on anti-revolutionary thinkers. This biography aims to illuminate his legacy in a Germany transformed by the Bismarck revolution, which replaced traditional values with Realpolitik, offering a much-needed English perspective on his life and work.
