35th Edition | Module 2022.1 – 100 years of “Political Theology” by Carl Schmitt
The Ius Commune – Interinstitutional Group on the History of Legal Culture – UFSC/CNPq, coordinated by Profs. Drs. Arno Dal Ri Jr., Caetano Dias Corrêa and Diego Nunes, invites the entire academic community to participate in the 35th module of discussions entitled The 100 years of “Political Theology”, by Carl Schmitt.
The present edition of Grupo Ius Commune will address the classic work “Political Theology”, written by Carl Schmitt in 1922. The study will contemplate the author’s main ideas in relation to the concepts of sovereignty, secularization and the foundations of the modern conception of state, emphasizing always the relationship of the points dealt not only with theology, but also with the reality in which we are inserted.
