The authors demonstrate that both in the USA and in modern Russia the question of the degree and nature of L. Strauss’s influence on the neocons remains open. Meanwhile, it is obvious that Strauss had a significant impact on the formation of neoconservative ideology, which is manifested in the similarity of the basic ideas of the philosopher and his disciples. The formation of the philosopher’s views took place during the crisis of the Weimar Republic and the Nazis’ rise to power in Germany, which postulated Strauss’ idea about the need for strong democracy and its ability to defend itself against tyranny. The concept of strong democracy that can withstand totalitarianism and authoritarianism is one of the key ideas of neo-conservatism. The similarity of Strauss’ philosophical views to those of the neoconservatives is seen in criticism of the liberal world order and moral foundations of the West, which gave rise to relativism and nihilism. The conformity of neoconservative worldview, including and its variants, such as straussianism, to the ideas of Strauss is manifested in advocating the interests of Israel, which the founders of neo-conservatism view as an outpost of the Western world.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В статье рассматриваются проблема влияния Лео Штрауса на политическую культуру США, анализируется современная историографическая ситуация проблемы. Авторы показывают, что как в США, так и современной России вопрос о степени и характере влияния Л. Штрауса на неоконсерваторов до сих остается открытым. Между тем, очевидно, что Штраус оказал существенное влияние на формирование неоконсервативной идеологии, что проявляется в сходстве базовых идей философа и его последователей. Формирование политических взглядов философа происходило в условиях кризиса Веймарской республики и прихода нацистов к власти в Германии, что поставило перед Штраусом вопрос о необходимости сильной демократии, и ее возможности защищаться от тирании. Идея сильной демократии, способной противостоять тоталитаризму и авторитаризму - одна из ключевых неоконсервативных идей. Сходство философских воззрений Штрауса и неоконсерваторов видится в критике либерального мироустройства, моральных основ Запада, породивших релятивизм и нигилизм. Мировоззренческое единство неоконсерватизма и его разновидности в форме штрауссианства с идеями Штрауса проявляется в отстаивании интересов государства Израиль, которое рассматривается основоположниками неоконсерватизма в качестве форпоста западного мира.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Leo Strauss</kwd><kwd>Carl Schmitt</kwd><kwd>Irving Kristol</kwd><kwd>liberalism</kwd><kwd>fascism</kwd><kwd>communism</kwd><kwd>neoconservatism</kwd><kwd>straussianism</kwd><kwd>crisis of liberalism</kwd><kwd>elitism</kwd><kwd>democracy</kwd><kwd>tyranny</kwd><kwd>moral crisis of the West</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Лео Штраус</kwd><kwd>Карл Шмитт</kwd><kwd>Ирвинг Кристол</kwd><kwd>либерализм</kwd><kwd>фашизм</kwd><kwd>коммунизм</kwd><kwd>неоконсерватизм</kwd><kwd>штрауссианство</kwd><kwd>кризис либерализма</kwd><kwd>элитизм</kwd><kwd>демократия</kwd><kwd>тирания</kwd><kwd>моральный кризис запада</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group><award-id></award-id></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Thompson C.B.
