You most interestingly said what one cannot stop with Kant conclusions because we pay the high price of losing our connection of the “ousia” within particulars of traditional metaphysics. Which I agree. My question is who do we end with? Personally I hope you don’t say Hegel, because I cannot at any moment concede to agree (what I believe to be a correct interpretation of Hegel) with a Monistic worldview given in his Absolute Idealism. Long post short, who finishes Kant philosophy in which we don’t lose the concept ot Essence and the knowledge of essences?

Cromwell is actually one of the earliest proponents, a Napoleonian antichristian figure, of the paradigmatic shift from godly to popular sovereignty -correctly named a dictator - and one if not the first founders of a modern constitution that is the symbolic and codified basis for the legitimacy of the new concept of popular sovereignty and the from Spinoza and a specific religion deriving fashion of the 'Rule of Law'. Dictatorship by the way might be acknowledged as the logical consequence of the popular rule, especially considering Rousseaus volonté générale and the construction of the almighty, homogenous and impervious body of the people that allows for no opposition, as Sean well stated. There we can maybe draw insights from Platos cycle of political forms already. With regards to the accurate observation of the british balancing spirit Schmitt once acknowlegded in his essay on the historical structure of the elementary antithesis of east and west that the revolutionary spirit was developed and established on the island first, where the call of the ultimate controlling domination of nature and the world through industrial technique and technology was heard more intensively than anywhere else in the world according to the dialectic of historical question and answer. Then France picked up on the revolutionary concepts of modern democracy, liberality and technological progress and augmented them extremely conformable to the consequent french spirit that enacted the bloody revolution. The beheading of King Charles I. presents a prefiguration of the cruelty and brutality of the later french revolution. Certainly there is a mutual fertilization between british and french modern thinking. This interaction can be illustrated by the travels of Hobbes and Locke to France during their persecution in England and their intellectual interaction with Galilei, Déscartes, Mersenne and others. The invasion of the Normans plays a significant historical role in that sense and was by the way severely criticized by Tolkien who emphasised more the anglo-saxxon heritage. Btw Burke is another good example of a political thinker of balance that doesn't take the revolutionary concepts from France to their extremes but balances them with the historical body of the British parliament, that includes the King and forms a whole, and the maturing process of time which ought to bring improvement and progress rather organically. On another note, Burke is a prime example for the organic metaphors of power by Jouvenel.

Thank you for the original compilation of political thinkers. It is impressive, how familiar Johannes is with Carl Schmitt and his political theory and legal philosophy / history. The aspect of governmentality of Foucault coalesces perhaps with the idea of technical and governmental centralization that Schmitt traces from Tocqueville and Donoso Cortés. I haven't interpreted his political Theology in regards to the (genealogical) sovereignty shift from godly to popular sovereignty yet, which is one insight from his method of juridical sociology of concepts. What exactly did you mean when you connected the cosmological cycle of political forms in Plato with Schmitts Nomos der Erde? I also recognize a crisis of legitimacy and representation and currently work on their terminological relation in the works of Schmitt as part of my dissertation. Interestingly Schmitt differentiates strictly in his Verfassungslehre between dynastic legitimacy of the 19th and early 20th century, which is regarded as a clenched adherence of power, and the principle of representation that makes something invisible visible or something which is absent present, even though it's absence remains presupposed (the dialectic of representation). As a Plato Specialist, do you see there a hidden reference to the (dialectic) relation of ideia and eikon? Certainly we can conclude that in this sense we see a vacuum of representation (a term almost stating the essence of power) in our times in the western hemisphere which maybe to a certain extent explains the rise of populism that channels the phenomenon of political frustration and rather is a inner-systemic solution of our liberal / socialistic plutocratic democracies. Schmitt also touches briefly on the conceptual relation of auctoritas and potestas, authority in a sense of spiritual control and power as the means to exert force and enforce obedience. Both concepts are intertwined and have to interact in a political system that is always tied into a theological / religious one. Those questions and terms could further elucidate the concept of power in Carl Schmitt. A hidden tip is his early essay of 1923: Roman Catholicism and Political Form that also elaborates in an extraordinary way the political form of the catholic church as a representative, successive, traditional and sacred body which embodies and personifies the principle of the personal human god Jesus Christ. Personality rests at the core of the representation principle, a personality that man derives from his god likeness. Here one can diagnose the elite's aversion of hierarchy which is also closely tied to the principle of representation in its juridical aspect according to Schmitt. More fundamentally the representation of Christ through the Church is a hierarchical process, a re-fetching of the primordial godly fountain that includes in itself truth, love, virtue, service, sacrifice etc. In this return to Christ also political power attains its legitimacy one could say.

Schmitts Leviathan btw. alludes to the mythical, destructive and dangerous nature of a transgressive human power that withdraws itself from the hand of its creator. The Leviathan, a very strange and fascinating Urbild, once released into the historical political sphere, takes on a life of its own. That is of course differing from the artificial marxist synthesis of private market capitalism and 'state' communism, a prediction of his philosophy of history.
