The International Political Thought of Carl Schmitt: Terror, Liberal ...

Notes
1A millet was a religious community that acted as a peripheral administrative agency of
the Empire: see Prévélakis (1994) and Zolo (2002: 7–36).
2 On the informal character, essentially based upon economic relations, of the imperial
power exercised by the United States over Latin America see Schmitt (1940:
162–173); on the Monroe Doctrine and the notion of Großraum, see Schmitt (1995:
277–285) and Campi (1996).
3 Also, some American authors have proposed an apologetic, rather than critical, use of
the notion of ‘Empire’ to denote the United States’ global power: see Ignatieff (2003)
and, for an authoritative critique, Nye (2004: 17).
4 On the tendency of US imperial domination to impose its own vocabulary, wording
and concepts upon subject peoples, see Schmitt (1933: 179–180).
