"Carl Schmitt[a] (11 July 1888 – 7 April 1985) was a German jurist and political theorist. An authoritarian conservative theorist,[4] he was noted as a critic of parliamentary democracy, liberalism, and cosmopolitanism.[5]

In 1933, Schmitt joined the Nazi Party and used his legal and political theories to provide ideological justification for the regime.": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Schmitt
