Roman Catholicism and Political Form (Carl Schmitt)
Carl Schmitt's thoughts on the Roman Catholic Church, or rather that Church as it was a hundred years ago, and European political organization. History took a different turn, but as always, Schmitt has worthwhile things to say.

"If, as Carl Schmitt asserted in Political Theology, “all significant concepts of the modern theory of the state are secularized theological concepts,” what does that imply for political forms? This book, written immediately after Political Theology, addresses that question. Schmitt analyzes a political form that originated as theological but has adopted many different secular roles—the Roman Catholic Church. I have to say that Roman Catholicism and Political Form, even by Schmittian standards, is a difficult read. Nonetheless, it rewards close attention and thought, because what Schmitt says is, as all things Schmitt are, surprisingly relevant to our situation today." . . .
