Ernst Fraenkel
Ernst Fraenkel was a prominent German political scientist and legal scholar, known for his work on totalitarianism and the complexities of state power. His influential book, "Doppelstaat" (Dual State), published in 1941, analyzed the nature of the Nazi regime and its legal and political frameworks, arguing that a dual structure of law operated under authoritarianism. Fraenkel's insights into the interplay between legality and political power have had a lasting impact on political theory, especially in the study of totalitarian states. His work remains relevant in contemporary discussions about governance and civil liberties.
