- Summary
- Pt. 1 (pp. 17-50) presents Zarka's reflections on two texts by the German Nazi lawyer Carl Schmitt, in which he strives to legally justify the racist Nuremberg Laws; pt. 2 (pp. 51-88) contains the two texts by Schmitt. The first text is an article published in the "Deutsche Juristen Zeitung" in October 1935, the second a paper delivered at a conference on international law in Berlin in November 1935. Argues that Schmitt's texts reveal his deep involvement with the Nazi regime and its policies, and show that attempts were made to present even the worst Nazi laws as respectable, acceptable, and deriving from the common order of things. States that the Nuremberg Laws, which introduced racism into German legislation with the aim of protecting German blood against "pollution" by the Jewish race, provided a framework which guided all measures of separation, discrimination, concentration, and destruction of the Jews. For Schmitt, the main purpose of laws in general was to define the enemy, since fighting the enemy was the purpose of politics. The Jewish enemy, however, unlike other enemies, was not temporal, but "substantial", a term Schmitt does not use, but Zarka believes underlies his definition of the Jewish race as the arch enemy. The Jews, therefore, remain the enemy irrespectable of circumstances, as they are characterized by their own unchangeable nature. Concludes that the definition of the Jews as a racial enemy paved the way for demands for their extermination.
