O nazista está morto: Nietzsche, a política e o Estado sob uma nova perspectiva

Abstract

This work intends to bring to an end any misconceptions, which could relate Nietzsche with Nazi ideology, as well as to rescue the political aspects present in the philosopher's work in his role as a genuine political thinker. In order to work, through its concepts of "great politics" and "transvaluation of all values", his political project that is concerned with the loss of the meaning of existence itself as well as overcoming the forms of nihilism produced by a whole tradition based in decaying values. Through the exposed in Genealogy of Morals, one debates about its critical contribution, through the “genealogical method”, for a new perspective on the theories of the emergence and foundation of the modern State. Therefore, through large use of philosophical and dialectical methods, it was possible to perceive, in the debate with contractualists Hobbes and Rousseau, a new interpretative path, regarding the legitimacy of the State, capable of breaking the classic political sentimentality represented by contractualist theories.
