- Title
CUMHURİYET TEORİLERİ KARŞISINDA CARL SCHMITT'İN KONUMU.

- Abstract
International reception of Carl Schmitt is strengthened by the fact that he produces concepts outside those of political science, philosophy and law that do not operate in different historical conjunctures. Taking the distinction between republic and democracy into consideration, it is possible to see that the German jurist has created yet another theoretical framework of his own. To see what Schmitt understand by the republic and to understand its position in relation to other discussions of republicanism, his works The Theory of the Constitution (Verfassungslehre, 1928), Roman Catholicism and Political Form (Römischer Katholizismus und politische Form, 1923) and Dictatorship (Die Diktatur, 1921) were consulted. Schmitt, first of all, refers to two opposite concepts of representation. Schmitt makes a distinction between the process he calls "representation"[1] and the practice called "representation"[2] in the modern world. According to him, the modern world suffers from a loss of representation. The true representation is the formation of publicity and a genuine universality. Political forms, as authentic mechanisms of representation, are the only mechanisms that can give existence to the identity of a people. For Schmitt, a republic is a political form that is not liberal but makes democracy possible through its very existence.
