The article sheds light upon recent controversies concerning Leo Strauss`s alleged influence on contemporary American and global politics. It exposes and analyses Strauss`s trenchant critique of liberal modernity and then offers a critical discussion on the nature of his legacy and the reception of his ideas in the United States since the 1950s.

Jean-Francois Drolet is a DPhil candidate in International Relations.
