Nietzsche and the Politics of Difference: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Nietzsche and the Politics of Difference" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The question of Nietzsches use of political theory has a long and vexed history. The contributors of this book re-situate debates around the notion of difference, in relation to historical and scholarly concerns, but with a view to the current political context. Given that today we are faced with a host of political challenges of domination and resistance, the question raised in this volume is how Nietzsche helps us to think through and to address some of the problems. The authors also discuss how his writings complicate our desire for swift solutions to seemingly intractable problems: how to resist slavishness in thought and action, how to maintain hard-won civil liberties and rights in the face of encroaching hegemonic discourses, practices and forces, or how to counteract global environmental degradation, in short, how to oppose totalitarian movements of homogenization, universalization, equalization, and instead to affirm, both politically and ontologically, a culture of difference.

Ashley Woodward

Ashley Woodward is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Dundee. He is a member of the executive committee of the Friedrich Nietzsche Society. His publications on Nietzsche and his legacy include the books Nihilism in Postmodernity (Davies Group, 2009), Understanding Nietzscheanism (Acumen, 2011), the edited volume Interpreting Nietzsche (Continuum, 2011) and articles in journals including Nietzsche-Studien, Continental Philosophy Review and The Agonist.

We live in a time when the suppression of difference seems to be the express aim of much political activity. Even where it is not the explicit aim, it is a not-undesired side-effect of a politics of equalisation, as has been observed across the globe, from the UK and the Trump-era US to parts of Eastern Europe, China, India, Russia and so on. Given that today we are faced with a host of political challenges of domination and resistance, the question raised in this volume is how Nietzsche helps us to think through and to address some of the problems with which we are faced today, but also how his writings complicate our desire for swift solutions to seemingly intractable problems: how to resist slavishness in thought and action, how to maintain hard-won civil liberties and rights in the face of encroaching hegemonic discourses, practices and forces, or how to counteract global environmental degradation; in short, how to oppose totalitarian movements of homogenisation, universalisation and equalisation, and instead to affirm, both politically and ontologically, a culture of difference.

All too often difference is understood as that which merely pertains between given entities or identities but, starting with Nietzsche, the thought of an originary difference that is irreducible to identity and, importantly, constitutive of identity gains traction. At the same time, the affirmation of difference as plurality or multiplicity goes hand in hand with difference as an ontological issue. The Nietzschean thought of difference thus marks the intersection of the purely ontological and the political.

Many recent and contemporary political philosophers and theorists distinguish between the political and politics, where the former encompasses aspects of a transcendental or ontological nature, whereas the latter concerns the empirical field in which the political articulates itself. The contributors to this collection variously cover aspects of both, either by concentrating solely on Nietzsches thoughts relevant to these aspects or, just as often, by interpreting Nietzsches works through the lens of one or more key figures in contemporary continental philosophy, such as Alain Badiou, Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, Jacques Rancire or Bernard Stiegler. In fact, one of the outstanding features of the present collection is the sheer breadth of topics covered, from human rights, migrants, fake news and populism, to the monstrous, the idiot and the question of space, to name but a few.

Although, on the one hand, Nietzsche was often deeply critical of politics and politicians, on the other hand, he advocated a great politics (
