English summary: The starting point of this manual uses an approach from the field of political science that analyzes political thought using resources from the humanities and social sciences. Making use of the most important political philosophers and theorists, as well as of selected state practitioners, the articles address all facets of political thought. Philosophical, theological, legal, historical, political, and sociological viewpoints are utilized. An epoch-specific classification is not provided, but rather political thinkers are discussed in alphabetical order to facilitate comparisons across all ages, cultures, and orientations. All individual contributions follow a consistent organizational principle. The volume is written for students, academics, and journalists, as well as for a generally interested public. The manual is intended primarily as a reference, but can also be used as a political science textbook, and provides a comprehensive overview of disciplinary areas. German text. German description: Ausgangspunkt des Handbuchs ist ein staatwissenschaftlicher Ansatz, der das Staatsdenken mit geistes- und sozialwissenschaftlichen Mitteln analysiert. Anhand der wichtigsten Staatsphilosophen und -theoretiker sowie ausgewahlter Staatspraktiker fuhren die Artikel in alle Facetten des Staatsdenkens ein. Dabei kommen philosophische, theologische, juristische, historische, politische und soziologische Gesichtspunkte zur Sprache. Eine epochenspezifische Systematik ist nicht vorgegeben, vielmehr werden die Staatsdenker in alphabetischer Reihenfolge behandelt, um Vergleiche uber alle Epochen, Kulturkreise und Ausrichtungen hinweg zu erleichtern. Dazu folgen alle Einzelbeitrage einem durchgangigen Gliederungsprinzip. Der Band wendet sich an Studierende, Wissenschaftler und Journalisten sowie an ein allgemein interessiertes Publikum. Das Handbuch dient in erster Linie als Nachschlagewerk, bietet sich aber auch als staatswissenschaftliches Lehrbuch an und gibt einen Uberblick uber die Teilbereiche der Disziplin, der sich zu einem umfassenden Gesamtbild zusammenfugt.
