Critical Thought. Dr. Ulmen has published widely on juridical and
political issues in both Europe and the United States. His latest
book is Politischer Mehrwert: Eine Studie über Max Weber und Carl

?This work is important because it shows that beneath Schmitt's
surface realism lie some very firm notions about the ideal
political order and how nearly the Catholic Church once embodied
it.?-The New York Review of Books
