Publisher's Synopsis
Text in German. In this book, Wolfgang Bialas focuses on Plessner's political philosophy and anthropology and his examination of National Socialism. From Plessner's point of view, the German specifics of the bourgeois value and social system had led Germany into the special path of a "belated nation". The connection between ideology, politics and morality is of overarching importance. With the metaphor of Germany as the "belated nation", Plessner became the key word for a powerful discourse about a "German special path".
