This article traces the semantics of ''life' ' and ''vitality'' in Carl Schmitt up to the 1930s. It shows that Schmitt deploys these vitalist elements against the modern ''spirit of technicity'' in his attempt to combat the lack of substantial ideas in modern politics. However, Schmitt himself cannot escape a fundamental political relativism. There remains an unstable tension at the heart of his thought between the quest for substance and the quest for order. The latter is relativist because it is a quest for order as such, any order. Although Schmitt's semantics of life and vitality is not drawn from a biological register, it adopted a völkisch meaning in 1933. Anti-Semitism becomes a form of life and racial homogeneity fills in for substance. The article concludes that, while there are good reasons for criticizing the modern ''spirit of technicity,'' Schmitt's critical model is fundamentally flawed. have engaged in dialogue with him, drawing on his conceptual equipment while also differing on key points. Since the 1980s, and particularly after his death in 1985, there has been a growing interest in Schmitt in the English-speaking world. 1 An increasing number of his writings have been translated into English, accompanied by a proliferation of books and articles, most of which come not from the conservative but rather from the liberal or, loosely, leftist range of the political spectrum. The reasons for this are as much contested as Schmitt himself was. Nevertheless, we can broadly distinguish two sets of motivations that drive the engagement with Carl Schmitt. One group of authors, mainly in the United States, is concerned about the rise of neoliberal, neoconservative, authoritarian or even fascist

Gesetzesbegriffe im deutschen Kaiserreich und in der Weimarer Republik

HUMANIORA Medizin — Recht — Geschichte

Wenn von der Geschichte des Gesetzesbegriffs im späten 19. und im frühen 20. Jahrhundert die Rede ist, dann denkt man meistens an die staatsrechtliche Theorie des Gesetzes, namentlich an die von Paul Laband erfundene Unterscheidung von Gesetz im materiellen und im formellen Sinne. Die nach wie vor bedeutendste einschlägige Monographie widmet sich denn auch gerade diesem Thema 1 . In Wirklichkeit ist aber die staatsrechtliche Diskussion nur ein Ausschnitt aus der Geschichte des Gesetzesbegriffs zwischen 1871 und 1932. Aus rechtstheoretischem Blickwinkel (unten B II) und aus der Sicht nicht-staatsrechtlicher Rechtsdisziplinen (unten B III) stellten sich die Dinge anders dar, als in der staatsrechtlichen Theorie (unten B I). Gar nicht erfaßt sie den Gesetzesbegriff im allgemeineren Kontext des Rechtsbegriffes, der sich im Laufe des 19. Jahrhunderts auffällig verändert (unten A). Ich versuche im Folgenden eine kleine Skizze. A. Der Gesetzesbegriff im Kontext des Rechtsbegriffs2 Bis zur Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts dominiert in Deutschland der Rechts-und Gesetzesbegriff der historischen Rechtsschule. Danach ist es "der in allen Einzelnen gemeinschaftlich lebende und wirkende Volksgeist, der das positive Recht erzeugt" 3 , "Recht" daher "eine gemeinsame Überzeugung der in rechtlicher Gemeinschaft Stehenden" 4 . Das Gesetz kann also nicht einfach Wille des Gesetzgebers sein, sondern nur ein Ausdruck der gemeinsamen Rechtsüberzeugung: der 1 Ernst-Wolfgang Böckenförde, Gesetz und gesetzgebende Gewalt. Von den Anfängen der deutschen Staatsrechtslehre bis zur Höhe des staatsrechtlichen Positivismus (1958), 2. Aufl., Berlin 1981. 2 Eine Darstellung der im Folgenden unter A. geschilderten Entwicklung ist mir nicht bekannt. Zur Begriffsgeschichte siehe sonst Werner Krawietz, Gesetz (I.
