Nietzsche and the Political Book uri icon

abstract

  • 1997 Daniel W. Conway. All rights reserved. In this study Daniel Conway shows how Nietzsches political thinking bears a closer resemblance to the conservative republicanism of his predecessors than to the progressive liberalism of his contemporaries. The key contemporary figures such as Habermas, Foucault, McIntyre, Rorty and Rawls are also examined in the light of Nietzsches political legacy. Nietzsche and the Political also draws out important implications for contemporary liberalism and feminist thought, above all showing Nietzsches continuing relevance to the shape of political thinking today.
