German political thought  

Definición

  • German political thought is an equivocal concept that may be best understood in the way of a Wittgensteinian “family resemblance.” While the adjective German can be understood to refer to a core of works written in German, by Germans, and reflecting the institutional, social, and cultural context of Germany, the use of linguae francae and the fragmented history of Germany prevent unambiguous demarcations. Additionally, the domain of the “political” does not coincide with contingent disciplinary boundaries: next to the political thinkers, theologians, jurists, economists, sociologists, and others have made important contributions.
