Will to Power and the Modern State in Nietzsche

En savoir plus sur le livre

Nietzsche critiques the modern State, arguing it suppresses humanity's inherent will to power, reducing individuals to weak, mediocre beings. He contrasts Hegel's view of the State as a rational force that elevates humanity, instead portraying it as a monstrous entity that enslaves people. Nietzsche believes that modern civilization stifles potential, keeping individuals in a state of mediocrity rather than fostering greatness. His philosophy advocates for the rejection of false values imposed by the State, urging individuals to reclaim their vitality and assert their true power for genuine happiness.
