Abstract
The statute of representation and political visibility for Kelsen and Schmitt The legal and philosophical debate opposing Carl Schmitt to Hans Kelsen doesn’t stage only two different conceptions of law and representation. The theme of political visibility plays a determining role as well. What is the difference between political publicity and transparency, and what consequences to draw in terms of justification of our political regimes ? For this question to be broached, this paper retraces the schmittian critique to Kelsen’s conception of law and political publicity. Its exposes the main features of the conception of transparency that Schmitt intends to substitute to the principle of publicity. Finally, it will be shown that Kelsen’s answer to Schmitt allows overstepping both the limits of schmittian text and the difficulties met by the parliamentary legislative state.
