The life and thought of Litt, who resisted power! Theodor Litt, who thoroughly opposed threats both within and outside Germany, such as Nazism during the war and communism after the war, with his pen, was an early advocate for the independence of scholarship from power and the dangers of scientific technology, such as nuclear power, being exploited by those in power. This warning strikes a chord with us, who live in an era of ongoing conflict, with corrupt powers constantly present. What should we learn from Litt's sharp insights? This is a comprehensive work by a leading scholar of Litt studies.
