Article: Citizens into wolves?: Carl Schmitt's fictive account of security
Just published: Thomas Moore (University of Westminster), "Citizens into wolves?: Carl Schmitt's fictive account of security" ("Cooperation and Conflict", 46 [4], December 2011: pp. 502-20).
Quote: "This article assesses the extent to which security regimes are the products of authorization in the thought of Thomas Hobbes and Carl Schmitt. ... Schmitt's security regime is fictive, driven by colourful metaphor and political theology. By returning to classic questions of authorization - how a security regime authorizes itself - International Relations theory can examine the legitimation of security beyond an exclusively state-centric model."
