Nietzschean Defense of Democracy An Experiment in Postmodern Politics Hardcover - 1999

by Lawrence Hatab


From the publisher

In A Nietzschean Defense of Democracy, Hatab offers a new, postmodern account of democracy, freed from the traditional assumptions embodied in the Enlightenment project. Hatab advances a two-fold argument: first, that Nietzsche was wrong to repudiate democracy since democratic politics can be more amenable to his way of thinking than he imagined; second, Nietzsche was right to critique fundamental flaws in traditional democratic theory, especially the modernist emphasis on human equality, rational subjectivity, and natural rights.

First line

Nietzche's thought can be understood as a subversion of classic priorities in the Western philosophical tradition, from Plato up through the Modern period.
