Stasys Šalkauskis and Antanas Maceina as Political Philosophers

Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to analyze the attitude Salkauskis and Maceina held towards the political philosophy. Later writings of Maceina notwithstanding, in this article we find the analysis of the perspectives that characterized these authors during the Interwar period. The article is based on the assumption that the failure to take account of Salkauskis and Maceina's attitude held toward the political philosophy makes the overall discussion on their political outlook non-valid. Neither of these authors can be dealt with as political philosophers in the strict sense of this word. They touched upon the issues this discipline embraced in the context of the works they had devoted to an entirely different purpose. Thus, before proceeding toward the examination of their political outlooks, it is necessary to identify their relationship with the problems this discipline is set to answer.
