Schmitt redux:

More on that odd Alan Wolfe article I lmentioned a couple of days ago, the one that documents the fascination of the intellectual left with Carl Schmitt and then proceeds to say that contemporary American conservatives are Schmittians-in-practice, the evidence for which is that Ann Coulter is vicious.

1) The link I gave was subscription-only, but the article’s been posted on the free portion of the Chronicle’s site.

2) Russell Arben Fox offers this skeptical analysis. The Jens ‘n’ Frens bloggers have been discussing the article as well; the most substantial posts are here and here.
