The article traces the life of the political theorist Carl Schmitt, focusing on his career during the Nazi era as well as his key works and concepts. On his 90th birthday, Schmitt was awarded the honorary ring of the city of Plettenberg, whose mayor emphasized that Schmitt had sought ways to limit armed conflicts between peoples and nations. Prof. Dr. Ulrich Schlie, however, disagrees with this assessment, arguing that delineating spheres of influence is unlikely to prevent the outbreak of wars.
