Written in 1932, just before the fall of the Weimar Republic and on
the eve of the Nazi accession to power, Ernst Junger's The Worker:
Dominion and Form articulates a trenchant critique of bourgeois
liberalism and seeks to identify the form characteristic of the
modern age. Junger's analyses, written in critical dialogue with
Marx, are inspired by a profound intuition of the movement of
history and an insightful interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophy.
Martin Heidegger considered Junger "the only genuine follower of
Nietzsche," singularly providing "an interpretation which took
shape in the domain of that metaphysics which already determines
our epoch, even against our knowledge; this metaphysics is
Nietzsche's doctrine of the `will to power.'" In The Worker, Junger
examines some of the defining questions of that epoch: the nature
of individuality, society, and the state; morality, justice, and
law; and the relationships between freedom and power and between
technology and nature. This work, appearing in its entirety in
English translation for the first time, is an important
contribution to debates on work, technology, and politics by one of
the most controversial German intellectuals of the twentieth
century. Not merely of historical interest, The Worker carries a
vital message for contemporary debates about world economy,
political stability, and equality in our own age, one marked by
unsettling parallels to the 1930s.
