Written in a clear and engaging style, this text demonstrates
Nietzsche's significance as a philosopher and as a political
theorist by highlighting his critique of liberalism (in both its
philosophical and political forms) and by elaborating the form of
ethical and political understanding which his philosophy discloses.
In describing Nietzsche's diagnosis of the modern condition, this
book explains the central aspects of his thought including the will
to power, the Overman and amor fati. David Owen traces the
relevance of Nietzsche's philosophy to current debates in political
theory and engages with key figures such as MacIntyre, Taylor,
Rorty and Rawls. Owen argues that the liberalism of the latter two
can be seen as the contemporary expression of Nietzsche's dystopian
vision of the Last Man and develops Nietzsche's political agonism
as articulating a cogent alternative to liberal political theory.
