Theory of the Partisan: Intermediate Commentary on the Concept of the Political (German: Theorie des Partisanen.
Zwischenbemerkung zum Begriff des Politischen) is a 1963 book by the German writer Carl Schmitt.
[1][2][3] It is based on two lectures Schmitt held in Francoist Spain in 1962 and covers military history, political philosophy and the legal and administrative aspects of partisanship.
Schmitt intended it as a concretisation and update for the post-war period of his thesis from The Concept of the Political (1932).
