Acknowledgements This volume began in 2003 when we first read the English translation of Carl Schmitt’s The Nomos of the Earth and felt compelled to introduce this book and make its insights better known to scholars of International Relations, Political Theory and International Law, in other words, scholars keenly thinking about the present international predicament. For this purpose, we convened a special workshop on the international political thought of Schmitt at the fifth Pan-European International Relations Conference which took place in September 2004 in The Hague. A number of coincidences were immediately striking: the conference was called ‘Constructing World Orders’, and it took place on 9–11 September in The Hague – the city which Schmitt associates with the final dissolution of the jus publicum Europaeum. Not only this: the conference and the workshop also shared the Netherlands Congress Centre with the newly convened International Criminal Court. We would like to thank Douglas Bulloch, Christoph Burchard, Dominika Dufferova, Jörg Friedrichs, Montserrat Herrero, Robert Howse, Carmelo Jiménez Segado, Jerónimo Molina Cano, Sergio Ortino, David Pan, Mikkel Thorup, Lars Vinx, Howard Williams and Thalin Zarmanian for their contributions to the workshop and their comments, which helped to shape not only this volume but also our understanding of Schmitt’s international thought. Moreover, we would like to thank Fred Dallmayr, Alexander Wendt, Michael Cox, Richard Bellamy, R. B. J. Walker and Peter Wilson for their critique and help with getting this volume to publication. Finally, our gratitude goes to Stefan Elbe and Irène Petito for their support and patience over the past few years, without which this volume would not have been possible. A shorter version of Chantal Mouffe’s chapter was published under the title ‘Schmitt’s Vision of a Multipolar World Order’ in South Atlantic Quarterly 104, no. 2, 2005.
