Highly relevant when the viability of liberal democracy is again called into question, German Philosophy in the Twentieth Century: Lukacs to Strauss is essential reading for students of German philosophy, phenomenology and critical theory, and will also be of interest to students in related fields such as literature, religious studies, and political theory.

- Ernst Bloch: the Marxist utopia
- Walter Benjamin: the confluence of phenomenology and left-wing thought: the Arcades Project, aura, and the technological reproduction of the artwork
- Oswald Spengler: the pessimistic right and the concept of Western decline
- Max Scheler: Catholic conservatism and the 'objective hierarchy of values'
- Carl Schmitt: the failure of liberalism, dictatorship, 'friends' versus 'enemies'
- Leo Strauss: the rejection of moral relativism and the return to classical philosophy.
