Christian Faith, and Religion, in Eric Voegelin's Work
This article examines three important texts in which Eric Voegelin discusses the Christian Faith. While it is true that one finds no personal confession of faith in Voegelin's works, one nevertheless finds there an extraordinary openess to the experiential truth expressed in Christian Symbols
Gesammelte Schriften
Mit nur 42 Jahren starb Hermann Heller am 5. November 1933 im spanischen Exil. Zu seinem Hauptwerk gehört das Werk Staatslehre , das er nicht mehr fertigstellen konnte. Heller prägte darin den Begriff des sozialen Rechtsstaats. Sein Gesamtwerk gilt als Grundlage sozialdemokratischen Staatsverständnisses. Seine Gesammelten Schriften setzen sich aus drei Bänden zusammen und liegen in der 2. Auflage von 1992 vor: Band 1: Orientierung und Entscheidun…
On Authority and Alienation
In a mental experiment that divested man of all institutions of order, Thomas Hobbes called the resulting imaginary situation “the state of nature,” and described it as “war of all against all.” In other words, he established an assumption that aggression is the original quality of human nature, an assumption he supported with correct observations. I submit that, if such a mental experiment made sense, it would be more to the point to call this i…

Reorientation required
Totalitarianism is an unprecedented historical phenomenon that subjects international and domestic politics to the politics of unlimited aims and the fears they engender. Calling it politically “irrational” is appropriate. Any attempt to change it should therefore be questioned for its ultimate metaphysical motivations. Still, the conflict between East and West has produced a kind of stable structure which may be seen as a double balance, a balan…

Not all politics is of one kind. To be sure, all politics centers on the state, the most comprehensive order of human existence. Practically as well as theoretically, however, one must distinguish between (1) the politics of justice, and (2) the politics of existence. In some political science departments these two are called “government” and “international relations.” Nor are these the only kinds of politics. One can further distinguish (3) the …
The New Need for the Catholic University
Bernard Shaw's still lingering statement, “a Catholic university is a contradiction in terms,” is a tautology or a prejudice. A tautology if we read it literally to mean: “A universal university is a contradiction in terms.” A prejudice if we supply the historical depth and turn it into a more precise statement, to wit: “A university under such authoritarian strictures by the Church as was the university of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries…

Lenin and the Total Critique of Society A Study in Ideological Activism
Modern Totalitarianism has often been grouped with various forms of authoritarianism in a genus characterized by excessive discipline. Is it not true, though, that the typical totalitarian motivation of our times can be described as revolutionary rather than authoritarian? Is it not a spirit that sees in revolution a vocation, an end in itself, a way of life? A faith in the creativeness of total destruction can be found in Bakunin, Goebbels, and …

A Query About Assumptions on International Organization
In seeking a rational solution to policy problems, we select and approach the relevant facts in the light of underlying assumptions. Both knowledge of the object and rational certainty about the course to be taken can be attained only by proceeding from assumptions concerning values as well as causal relations. Our thinking is scientific (or, if one prefers another term, rationally disciplined rather than merely emotional) insofar as these indisp…
Collective Security
Collective security is a term that has been applied to a variety of different arrangements. Originally and traditionally, it denoted the League of Nations type of security system. Lately, it has been used to describe the North Atlantic Treaty Organization with its inter-governmental machinery, as well as other regional or non-regional defense pacts
Relevant and Irrelevant Doctrines Concerning International Relations
Time was when a nation, at the pinnacle of its might, asked itself the question: “In the relation of states, what is the right thing, which ought to be done, and what is the wrong thing, which ought not to be done?” It was Spain, a worldconquering power, which thus approached problems of policy in the light of rational choice and raised a crop of great and lucid minds who laid the foundations for what later became international law. But the parti…
The Balance-Sheet of the League Experiment
International Organization, no longer the exclusive preserve of dreamers and idealists, is now, for better or for worse, one of the palpable realities of world politics. Whether we choose to consider it our best hope or a snare and a delusion or something in between, we are compelled to reckon with its effects, one of which is the foreseeable cost of non-participation in it. Its characteristic features – public debate, parliamentary procedures an…

International Law and Social Structure
The crisis of practical international law has forced the science of international law to take stock of its most fundamental notions. Discussion is in full sway about the essence of international law, about its adequacy and its development, and about the factors conditioning its growth and effectiveness. Together with this survey of the entire phenomenon of positive international law, attempts are being made to revise the theoretical construction,…
