The Just State: Observations on Gustav von Schmoller's Political Theory

Abstract

The author attempts to reconstruct the political way of thinking pervading Schmoller′s works. Schmoller′s pleading for a primarily aristocratic constitution results from a theory of justice in which each member of the community is rewarded according to his or her contribution to the community. The epistemological precondition for this is Schmoller′s axiom on the formation of communities.
