Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the philosophical underpinnings of Prussian political thought, examining the ideals that shaped Germany's ambitions for world power in the early 20th century. The author explores the unique relationship between Prussian political philosophy and the broader German intellectual tradition, highlighting its metaphysical and idealistic tendencies. Central to this analysis is the concept of *Weltanschauung*, the German worldview, which the author argues underpins Prussian political theory. The book meticulously unpacks the key tenets of Prussian philosophy, revealing its belief in the inherent superiority of the German people and the moral justification for their dominance. The author exposes the dangerous equation of military might with national strength and cultural worth, highlighting the moral justifications used to justify German militarism and aggression. The book's exploration of this philosophical framework offers a critical lens for understanding the historical context of Germany's pre-war actions and the devastating consequences of its ideology.
