  1. The Metamorphoses of Natural Law: On the Social Function of the Pre-Bourgeois and Bourgeois Foundations of Law.Stefan Breuer - 1986 - Telos: Critical Theory of the Contemporary 1986 (70):94-114.
    “De jure naturae multa fabulamur” — after 450 years, Luther's statement has lost none of its original validity. After a brief pseudo-renaissance following WWII, one now hears far less in legal theory about natural law, which appears finally to have fallen victim to what Weber early in the century characterized as “a progressive decomposition and relativization of all meta-legal axioms” — a destruction resulting partly “from legal rationalism itself,” and partly “from the skepticism which characterizes modern intellectual life generally.” Law (...)

    Carl Schmitt Im Kontext: Intellektuellenpolitik in der Weimarer Republik.Stefan Breuer - 2012 - Berlin: Akademie Verlag.
    Carl Schmitt verfügt heute über eine so breite und stets wachsende internationale Leserschaft wie kein anderer deutscher Staatsrechtslehrer des vergangenen Jahrhunderts. Sein Werk wird dabei freilich meist isoliert betrachtet und allenfalls auf den staatsrechtlichen Kontext bezogen. Im Mittelpunkt dieses Buches steht dagegen der politische Intellektuelle, der weit über die Grenzen seines Faches hinauswirkte. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit gilt dabei den Anfangs- und den Endjahren der Weimarer Republik. Während Schmitt in München Strategien zur Zähmung der Revolution entwickelte, setzte er sich in seinen Berliner (...)

    Max Webers Staatssoziologie: Positionen und Perspektiven.Andreas Anter & Stefan Breuer (eds.) - 2007 - Baden-Baden: Nomos.
    Max Webers Positionen gehoren zu den Grundlagen der Analyse moderner Staatlichkeit und pragen die staatstheoretische Diskussion bis heute. Dies gilt fur das Kriterium des Gewaltmonopols ebenso wie fur die Frage der Rationalitat und Legitimitat des Staates. Eine geschlossene Staatssoziologie hat Weber jedoch nicht hinterlassen - seine Uberlegungen sind Fragment geblieben und lassen zudem denkbar unterschiedliche Interpretationen zu. Welche Bedeutung haben seine Diagnosen fur das Verstandnis des modernen wie des vormodernen Staates? Die Autoren dieses vielbeachteten Bandes stellen die wichtigsten Aspekte der (...)

    Adorno's Anthropology.Stefan Breuer - 1985 - Telos: Critical Theory of the Contemporary 1985 (64):15-31.
    Anniversary commemorations are ambivalent events, particularly when they celebrate philosophers. Such commemorations focus on a life's work and occasionally contribute to its elucidation. However, they frequently do violence to those they intend to honor, by emphasizing primarily those aspects of a thinker's work which make him acceptable to the spirit of the age. And such was the fate of Theodor Adorno, whose eightieth birthday was observed in 1983 at a major conference, held in Frankfurt, West Germany. There his interpreters, embarked (...)

    Between 'Conservative Revolution', aesthetic fundamentalism and new nationalism: Thomas Mann's early political writings.Stefan Breuer - 1998 - History of the Human Sciences 11 (2):1-23.
    The author of 'Betrachtungen eines Unpolitischen' (1918) is usually regarded as one of the founding fathers of the so-called 'Conservative Revolution'. But Thomas Mann's understanding of this concept does not at all coincide with the definition established by Armin Mohler, mainly in that it is not Nietzschean. Nor do the ties with the George circle furnish grounds for assigning Mann to the 'Conservative Revol ution', any more than to the 'aesthetic fundamentalism' which was cul tivated there. Moreover, it can be (...)

    Classe, ceto e strato nella sociologia della religione di Max Weber.Stefan Breuer - 2020 - Scienza and Politica. Per Una Storia Delle Dottrine 32 (63):41-61.
    In his early writings, dealing mainly with problems of agricultural policy, Max Weber at times differentiates between “class” and “estate”, but in general he treats them as synonyms. Only after 1909, when he started to work on Economy and Society and Economic Ethic of the World Religions, he felt the necessity to use these concepts in a more clear-cut manner. “Classes” are only placed within the economic order, while “estates” belong to the social order and take shape through the partition (...)

    Der Streit um den,,nordischen Gedanken“ in der völkischen Bewegung.Stefan Breuer - 2010 - Zeitschrift für Religions- Und Geistesgeschichte 62 (1):1-27.
    This essay analyzes the tensions that the rise of “Nordic racism” associated with Hans F. K. Günther triggered within the völkisch movement in the 1920s. Using the examples of the “Deutschbund,” the völkisch wing of the German youth movement “Bündische Jugend” and the German Aristocrats' Association “Deutsche Adelsgenossenschaft,” this essay shows that the reception of the Nordic idea was partially based on misunderstandings and distortions but was also met with open disagreement.
