Nietzsche contra Rousseau : A Study of Nietzsche's Moral and Political Thought, Paperback / softback Book

Nietzsche contra Rousseau : A Study of Nietzsche's Moral and Political Thought Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Keith Ansell-Pearson's book is an important and very welcome contribution to a neglected area of research: Nietzsche's political thought.

Nietzsche is widely regarded as a significant moral philosopher, but his political thinking has often been dismissed as either impossibly individualistic or dangerously totalitarian.

Nietzsche contra Rousseau takes a serious look at Nietzsche as political thinker and relates his political ideas to the dominant traditions of modern political thought.

In particular, the nature of Nietzsche's dialogue with the philosophy of Jean-Jacques Rousseau is examined, in order to demonstrate Rousseau's crucial role in Nietzsche's understanding of modernity and its discontents.
